I think this is a duplicate of:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1865959
Installing
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/plymouth/plymouth_0.9.4git20200109-0ubuntu3.3_amd64.deb
seemed to fix the issue for me

Title:
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth hangs: no THEME_PATH
Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm doing a release upgrade from eoan to focal of my irc bouncer, and
noticed it hanging when generating the initramfs:
Setting up linux-generic (5.4.0.14.17) ...
Processing triggers for initramfs-tools (0.136ubuntu1) ...
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.4.0-14-generic
(hangs)
Process listing shows:
/bin/sh /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth
\_ /bin/sh /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/plymouth
\_ grep ImageDir *= *
\_ sed s/ImageDir *= *//
The code is:
THEME_PATH="$(update-alternatives --query default.plymouth 2>/dev/null | sed -e '/^Value:/!d' -e 's/^Value: \(.*\)/\1/')"
IMAGE_PATH=$(grep "ImageDir *= *" ${THEME_PATH} | sed 's/ImageDir *= *//')
THEME_PATH is empty:
ubuntu at irc-proxy:~$ update-alternatives --query default.plymouth 2>/dev/null | sed -e '/^Value:/!d' -e 's/^Value: \(.*\)/\1/'
ubuntu at irc-proxy:~$ update-alternatives --query default.plymouth
update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for default.plymouth
and grep is then waiting for something on its stdin, forever.
At this moment, plymouth is version 0.9.4git20200109-0ubuntu3.2 from
focal already.
