[Bug 788138] Re: group default.plymouth is broken

[Lucazade]

Yes, I tweaked grub default colors some months ago so I've probably messed up this file (instead of working on linked file!).
Removed it manually and update-alternatives completed succesfully.

You're right is not a plymouth bug, it was me not remembering what I've done!
Thanks a lot for your support.

Title:
  group default.plymouth is broken

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: plymouth

   if I try to change the theme I get this error and plymouth is
  displayed only in text mode:

  $ sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth

  update-alternatives: warning: forcing reinstallation of alternative /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/ubuntu-logo.plymouth because link group default.plymouth is broken.
  update-alternatives: warning: not replacing /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth with a link.

  How to fix this?
  I am using ubuntu 11.04

  $ cat /proc/fb
  0 VESA VGA

  ls -l /etc/alternatives/default.plymouth
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 53 2011-04-27 08:32 /etc/alternatives/default.plymouth -> /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/ubuntu-logo.plymouth
