[Bug 1289809] Re: Grub theme: black screen with purple border

[Steve Langasek]

I don't think this is a bug; the effect of clearing the screen after
successfully setting the background_color should, AIUI, be precisely to
refresh the screen with the background color (as opposed to only using
the background color when drawing more text to the screen).  But
assigning to Colin, who (as grub maintainer and author of the code in
question) will be able to answer more authoritatively.

Title:
  Grub theme: black screen with purple border

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  There's a minor typo on the grub theme which produces a black screen
  with purple border after exiting the grub menu (or on starting
  Plymouth). I understand that there's a `!` (negation) missing before
  the background_color invokation:

  $ cat /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-logo/ubuntu-logo.grub
    if background_color 44,0,30; then
        clear
    fi
