[Bug 1525699] Re: Error message "/sbin/plymouthd: not found" is shown on booting

[Sworddragon]

On making a more detailed look for "/lib/plymouth" on my system
(yakkety) I have found this:

root at ubuntu:~# find / -type f -print0 2> /dev/null | grep -EZvz '^/(dev|proc|run|sys)/' | xargs -0I {} grep -Hn '/lib/plymouth' {}
/var/lib/dpkg/info/plymouth.list:36:/var/lib/plymouth
/etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme:42:			if [ -e /lib/plymouth/themes/default.grub ]; then
/etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme:43:				sed "s/^/${1}/" /lib/plymouth/themes/default.grub
Binary file /sbin/plymouthd matches


The code in /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme seems not to be directly related but it contains a comment that it is not needed after xenial anymore and should probably get removed. But I'm wondering why /sbin/plymouthd has still a reference to the old path.
