Package: plymouth
Severity: wishlist

plymouth appears to be marked for i386 and amd64.  There are many
powerpc machines left in the world, and most of them can be found very
cheap.

It would be nice to be able to offer these machines as free-software
desktops, kiosks, etc.

For this sort of use, though, a pretty boot process makes the machines
less scary.  plymouth seems like one way to do this.

Is there a reason to not enable plymouth on all architectures?  If not
all arches, at least powerpc would be nice.

Thanks,

   --dkg
