[Bug 2056526] Re: Plymouth's hidden console contains squares instead of bold text on live session shutdown

[Tim Richardson]

In

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/issues/152

which relates to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1942987 reference
above, there was a comment from upstream:

"we ship a script plymouth-populate-initrd upstream that copies all the
necessary files if you can hook into that."

I mention because I reported this problem I'm having upstream, adding to
a previously closed issue:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/issues/233

Upstream made a change to their initrd-building script, but noted "This
won't fix Ubuntu though, they use their own scripts to build their
initrds that come from Debian"

Title:
  Plymouth's hidden console contains squares instead of bold text on
  live session shutdown

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Plymouth's hidden console contains squares instead of bold text on
  live session shutdown.

  You can see it by pressing Escape instead of Enter.

  It seems somewhat related to the fix for bug 1942987, which only
  preloads non-bold text for the live session shutdown splash.
