Sorry, but this is also 100% incomprehensible to me. Arch packages should be universally usable for distris that are based on Arch. And not be bound to a fixed logo!

I have now also had to adjust the PKGBUILD and manually removed these logos everywhere. Sorry... but what's the point, with this you destroy many Distris at once.

@yloose Yeah, and if you read the post-upgrade message displayed after updating the package, then you already know what to do and why :)

@gnunn Yeah, after updating this package, mkinitcpio reports that the plymouth-encrypt hook can not be found.

Has anyone had an issue with the last update with luks and plymouth-encrypt not prompting for a password? When I boot my laptop it just sits there with the laptop logo and a spinning wheel. Pressing escape doesn't show anything and there doesn't appear to be a way to enter the luks password. I ended up having to boot a USB stick with Arch and remove plymouth and replace plymouth-encrypt with encrypt in mkinitcpio.conf in order to be able to boot again.

I've been using plymouth-git for years and this is the first time I came across such an issue. I checked all the filex and it turned out, that even when I removed all the parts with arch images, it still brought it up from somewhere, although I opened EVERY FILE AND SEARCHED FOR ARCH. Anyway, the easiest part was just to add those two missing images. All of that issue was because the script was making plymouth theme for arch. For me useless, because I wouldn't use it anyway.

@michaldybczak: notabug/wontfix

If you try to install an Arch package on a non-Arch system, the onus is on you, as a user, to adapt the PKGBUILD to your needs. On Arch systems, the file in question is provided by 'filesystem', feel free to edit said line in the PKGBUILD to suit your needs. Just be aware that the 'archlinux-logo.png' file is also referenced in 'plymouth.initcpio_install', so you might run into problems down the line anyway, if it is missing on your system.

Won't build: INFO: calculating backend command to run: /usr/bin/ninja -C /mnt/home-hdd/build/plymouth-git/src/build Error reading file "/usr/share/pixmaps/archlinux-logo-text-dark.svg": Error opening file /usr/share/pixmaps/archlinux-logo-text-dark.svg: No such file or directory ==> ERROR: There is error in build(). Aborting... Looks like the build is expecting arch logo, but not all Arch based systems have it. It is either a bug in build or bug in git expecting plymouth to be installed only on Arch...

Segfault probably got fixed with this issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/-/issues/196

FGL82 commented on 2022-11-29 12:24 (UTC)

Was segfaulting here as well, fixed with the new version
