Yes I noticed that when looking at the proposed plymouth:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+sourcefiles/plymouth/0.9.5+git20211018-1ubuntu3/plymouth_0.9.5+git20211018-1ubuntu3.debian.tar.xz
It appears to all be the same 'ubuntu-logo' theme. We can't remove the old
graphics just yet because they're referenced by our current theme in
ubuntu-logo.patch:
+if (bits_per_pixel == 4) {
+ logo_filename = "ubuntu-logo16.png"; // old logo
...
+} else {
+ logo_filename = "ubuntu-logo.png"; // new logo
Falling back to a lower bit depth seems like something we should still support
so maybe we should just update ubuntu-logo16.png after ubuntu-logo.png is finalized.

Hey there,
A refresh of the Ubuntu logo is landing in Jammy, we updated the default
plymouth theme (spinner, the one which displays the bios/vendor icon in the
middle of the screen with an ubuntu watermark at the bottom) but it triggers the
question of what to do with the old 'ubuntu-logo' theme which we were using
until focal.
Since the artwork is outdated and the theme unmaintained the Desktop Team is
proposing to remove ubuntu-logo now. The theme is still recommended by the unity
and kylin desktop packages, we suggest replacing it by spinner as it has been
done for ubuntu desktop.
Is anyone knowing of a reason why we shouldn't do that change? If so please
reply to that email, otherwise we will go ahead and file a FFe to remove the
theme before the LTS.
Cheers,
Sebastien Bacher
