[Bug 1308723] Re: ubuntu-logo theme rendered incorrectly with recent grub, instead of full-screen purple, it's a purple frame around black rectangle

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package plymouth - 0.8.8-0ubuntu17.1

---------------
plymouth (0.8.8-0ubuntu17.1) trusty; urgency=medium

  * Correct early boot theming. Adjust grub snippet that sets purple
    background color - set alpha to zero. Thanks to Yu Ning. (LP:
    #1308723).

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:
  [Impact]
  When booting ubuntu-desktop you'll see a black rectangle instead of fully purple screen as early as possible.
  [Test Case]
  1. install update
  2. run $ sudo update-grub
  3. Reboot
  [Regression Potential]
  Minor change to background_color to fix this issue.

  if background_color 44,0,30; then
    clear
  fi

  is what ubuntu-logo plymouth theme snippet injects into grub.cfg, this
  generates a purple one character frame whilst the center is black. It
  used to be all purple. i mean aubergine.
