[Bug 1976352] Re: The plymouth label plugin pulls in too many dependencies

[Steve Langasek]

FYI this binary package has just been demoted to universe in kinetic
because it has no reverse-dependencies in main.  If it's to be used in
images, please make sure it ends up in the appropriate seed.

Title:
  The plymouth label plugin pulls in too many dependencies

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The plymouth label plugin pulls in too many dependencies (libpango,
  libcairo, X libs, etc.). This is an issue for integration in the
  initramfs.

  There is an alternative plugin (label-ft) that has been proposed upstream:
  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/merge_requests/91
  As it is a separate plugin, core parts of plymouth are only slightly changed.

  The package built for kinetic can be found here:
