It seems that you have a problem with 'plymouth-theme-trisquel-logo', which is properly installed on my system. Run the following command in terminal to reinstall that package, it might solve your problem.


$ sudo aptitude reinstall plymouth-theme-trisquel-logo

I've tried dpkg-reconfigure and aptitude reinstall for both plymouth-theme-trisquel-logo and trisquel-recommended. It seemd the problem has something to do with both. Finaly I purged/removed both. Now I installed them and it went without problems.

I'm closing the bug report.
