Hi,
after inspection upstream, it seems the bug is caused by the ubuntu/debian
specific initramfs-tools hook in debian/local/plymouth.hook. The analysis is in
comments
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/issues/92#note_418076 and
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/issues/92#note_418219 of the
upstream issue (which is now closed).
To summarize, the ubuntu initramfs-hook does the following while copying
a theme to the initramfs:
# copy plugin and images for current theme
copy_exec "${MODULE}"
cp -a "${THEMES}/${currtheme}" "${DESTDIR}/${THEMES}"
which misses directories that are not descendants of the ${currtheme}
one. Plymouth upstream provides a script which does the right thing,
maybe it's worth using.
