Title:
  init: plymouth-upstart-bridge respawning too fast, stopped

Status in “plymouth” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Since a while i get that issue with each cold boot logged inside
  dmesg:

  init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (237) terminated with status 1
  [    5.566839] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process ended, respawning
  [    5.569252] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge main process (239) terminated with status 1
  [    5.569332] init: plymouth-upstart-bridge respawning too fast, stopped

  Seen on a forum a proposed workaround: adding 'sleep 5' at the end of
  the script, but this is not accepted as a valid entry.

  /etc/init/plymouth-upstart-bridge.conf :

  # plymouth-upstart-bridge - Bridge Upstart state changes into Plymouth
  #
  # This helper process receives Upstart state changes over D-Bus and sends
  # corresponding messages to Plymouth.

  description     "bridge from Upstart state changes to Plymouth"

  respawn

  start on (startup
            or runlevel [06])
  stop on (stopping plymouth
           or stopping plymouth-shutdown)

  console output

  exec plymouth-upstart-bridge

  seems similar as that oldish lp:1309617
