Title:
  plymouth-themes doesn't register all themes in alternatives system

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The plymouth-themes package installs several themes, but doesn't register all of them in the alternatives system (update-alternatives).
  So, after installation, the user can't use "sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth" to change the theme, and has to register it manually.
