This message indicates that your package installation is corrupted, and
is not a bug in Ubuntu.

The file /lib/plymouth/themes/ubuntu-text/ubuntu-text.plymouth.in is
shipped in the plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text package and should exist
unconditionally.

** Changed in: plymouth (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
