[Bug 554172] Re: system services using "console output" not starting at boot

[ingo]

Great, thanks for your feedback, Rogi.

Plynouth in my opinion is yust a fancy boot screen which is still in an
alpha stadium. Though Ubuntu team always points out it also does all
logging during boot process - that is the root cause of all that and
other troubles and you again did confirm that. Did you ever see any fsck
properly logged in /var/log/fsck/* with Lucid?

The ugly side is that Canonical has intenionally built in a fake-
dependency on plymouth in packages 'mountall' and 'cryptsetup' to force
users to act as alpha/beta-testers for their buggy plymouth. I'd be
willing to do such tests (to make Ubuntu better) if it is clearly
explained and documented and the choice to participate is left to the
user. But I do not accept the current attitude in a LTS-release!

This are hard words of a disappointed Ubuntu user and I do revoke my
statements if somebody proves the opposite.
