[Bug 1235231] Re: plymouth loses output to /dev/console (such as ci-info: messages)

[Steve Langasek]

I think the cloud-init *binary package* should add these .override files
as conffiles.  While the issue of messages going missing may affect
systems other than cloud images, it's precisely the cloud images where
a) plymouth adds no value, and b) the impact of messages going missing
from the console is highest.

And dpkg-divert is not the right tool for this.  The .override files
should be created in the postinst, and removed in postrm (when called
with $1 == remove || $1 == purge); but this should absolutely not
involve dpkg-divert.
