So, the proposed change from #115 doesn't work if plymouth is started
from the initramfs, like when cryptsetup is used. In such a case no
'started plymouth-splash' is ever emitted, so something else needs to be
used:
00:34 < tjaalton> slangasek: heh, yeah. I was wondering if there was some more
generic event to abuse here
00:36 < slangasek> tjaalton: not really, we need to create one - either by
fixing it in upstart, or by adding a
secondary job that's 'start on startup or started
plymouth-splash', checks for plymouth-splash
running already, and emits an appropriate common event
00:36 < tjaalton> slangasek: right, that could work
00:36 < tjaalton> as an interim solution
00:37 < slangasek> tjaalton: and by 'checks for plymouth splash running', I
mean checking the output of 'status
plymouth-splash'
fixing upstart means "synthesizing 'started' events for jobs started
from initramfs", but in the meantime the other approach could be used.
