Public bug reported: The plymouth label pulls in too many dependencies (libpango, libcairo, X libs, etc.). This is an issue for integration in the initramfs.
There is an alternative plugin (label-ft) that has been proposed upstream: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/merge_requests/91 I have attached a debdiff that integrates that plugin in our packaging. As it is a separate plugin, core parts of plymouth are only slightly changed. The package built for kinetic can be found here too: https://launchpad.net/~alfonsosanchezbeato/+archive/ubuntu/build2 ** Affects: plymouth (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Patch added: "label-ft.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1976352/+attachment/5594049/+files/label-ft.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to plymouth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1976352 Title: The plymouth label pulls in too many dependencies Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The plymouth label pulls in too many dependencies (libpango, libcairo, X libs, etc.).
