I had the same issue when making packages (ebuilds) for Gentoo. I resolved it by making a elementary-backgrounds package which at least includes the cloud background from the jupiter elementary OS release. These get installed into /usr/share/backgrounds/elementary. Finally I adjusted the gsettings schema to have the cloud background as default, resolving the issue of this bug. (with pantheon-wallpaper depending on elementary-backgrounds)
This approach might help with the ubuntu packages. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of elementary desktop team, which is the registrant for Pantheon Wallpaper. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/812815 Title: Wallpaper starts without any image Status in Pantheon Wallpaper: Confirmed Bug description: I have Wallpaper rev. 23, and both in Compiz and Metacity it's blank until I change the dconf key.
