Unsure why this was not allowed.

Just want to bring this issue to the maintainer. If you would permit
it to be posted, I would be grateful.

Thank you.

After a normal dist-upgrade this morning on my Kubuntu 16.04 64-bit
installation, apt complained about a missing plugin file:
kubuntu-text.so.

I reinstalled the following plymouth packages:

plymouth
plymouth-x11
plymouth-label
plymouth-theme-ubuntu-text
plymouth-theme-kubuntu-logo
plymouth-theme-kubuntu-text
plymouth-themes
libplymouth4

Apt still complained about the missing plugin file:

W: plymouth: The plugin kubuntu-text.so is missing, the selected theme
might not work as expected.
W: plymouth: You might want to install the plymouth-themes package to fix this.

I searched my system using locate for the file. It in fact does not
exist. However, ubuntu-text.so does, located at:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plymouth/ubuntu-text.so

Can this be looked into and fixed?

Thank you.
