Here's some more Ubuntu-specific info:

estan at newton:~$ LC_ALL=C update-alternatives --display default.plymouth
default.plymouth - manual mode
  link best version is
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.plymouth
  link currently points to
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/orexplore.plymouth
  link default.plymouth is /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth
  slave default.plymouth.grub is /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.grub
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.plymouth - priority 150
  slave default.plymouth.grub:
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/kubuntu-logo/kubuntu-logo.grub
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/orexplore.plymouth -
priority 100
estan at newton:~$

So currently pointing at
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/orexplore.plymouth ,
which is my custom theme. This file looks like:

estan at newton:~$ cat
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/orexplore.plymouth
[Plymouth Theme]
Name=Orexplore
Description=Theme showing the Orexplore logo
ModuleName=script

[script]
ImageDir=/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/images
ScriptFile=/usr/share/plymouth/themes/plymouth-theme-orexplore/orexplore.script
estan at newton:~$

The script.so plugin seems installed correctly:

estan at newton:~$ ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plymouth/
totalt 184

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18984 maj 10 19:56 ubuntu-text.so
estan at newton:~$

Do you folks think I'm looking at an Ubuntu 16.04 packaging bug, or a bug
in Plymouth?
