Somehow, the current link stays at
current -> /etc/bootsplash/themes/debiantux,
while a real directory is named "DebianTux".
This seems to be left over from older installations.
"ln -s linux debiantux" doesn't help either.
It's fine that it's "Not displaying select list shared/bootsplash-theme
with 1 choice", but it should do that choice on it's own.
When I purge all bootsplash themes and...
dpkg
-i /home/eike/bootsplash-theme-linux_3.0.0-3_i386.deb
/home/eike/bootsplash_3.0.7-8_i386.deb
