But only with updates directly from before August 10, not having ever had the problem. I found this out when trying to duplicate the problem with my downtown machine, which had not been touched since the previous weekend. After laboriously updating a few packages at a time and remaking initramfs, then rebooting, I found that all packages installed fine, the black screen bug did not appear at all, and the plymouth text finally returned. Looks like another /var/run issue to me, if anyone can figure out exactly what it was it would help people who do not have a backup file system image to roll back from, then re-update.
