And as an example of this name being problematic, vivid's name for this wallpaper is "Suru_Wallpaper_Desktop_4096x2304_Gray.png".
So if I were to try to switch unity8-dash to use the system "paper" wallpaper instead of its built-in custom one, I'd point at "Suru_Wallpaper_Desktop_4096x2304_Gray.png" for vivid and "Xerus_Wallpaper_Grey_4096x2304.png" for xenial, and who knows what in yakkety. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-wallpapers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1592870 Title: Xerus_Wallpaper_Grey_4096x2304.png is a terrible default wallpaper filename Status in ubuntu-wallpapers package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: "Xerus_Wallpaper_Grey_4096x2304.png" is not a good filename for a default wallpaper. - It encodes the release where it first appeared. I would have assumed we'd learned that lesson from "warty-final-ubuntu.png", which is *still* our default wallpaper filename. - It encodes the image size, which makes it awkward when/if we ever update the file to a different size. Why didn't we just name it "ubuntu-grey.png" or something? Is it too late to do so? With a symlink involved for backwards compatibility. We could probably never drop the symlink, because we actually released this file into the wild... But at least we'd be trying.
