In the latest version of psplash 
(http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/psplash/)  there are two patches 
that are not in the version of psplash used in the oe-core denzil branch. The 
first patch called Make it easier to customise 
colours<http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/psplash/commit/?id=84764337a584002a92940323d374b0e417c573a6>
 moves some color definitions from being hardcoded into psplash.c and puts it 
in a new header file called psplash-colors.h.  The second patch Fix for psplash 
segmentation 
fault<http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/psplash/commit/?id=de9979aefbc56af59b4d236a4b63dd19dcdcfb53>
 fixes a segment fault issue.

What I would like to do is update the psplash_git.bb recipe to use the latest 
version of psplash that pulls in these two tweaks. The second patch has zero 
impact on existing users of the pslash recipe. If a particular layer tweaks the 
color definitions in psplash by patching the psplash.c file then the second 
patch mentioned above could result in a minor tweak having to be made to those 
layers to address the changes. In oe-classic noticed that there is a patch for 
psplash 
(http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded/tree/recipes/psplash/psplash-ti/0001-configurability-for-rev-422.patch)
 that patches psplash in almost the same exact way as the "Make it easier to 
customize colours" patch.

Are there any objections in bumping the version of psplash to incorporate the 
above mentioned patches? I haven't seen any layer adjust the psplash color 
definitions so I doubt there truly being any impact at all.
