[Bug 857745] [NEW] Remove xsplash from the archive?

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

I noticed recently that I had an ubuntu-xsplash-artwork package
installed on my system.  I know we're not using xsplash anymore in the
standard desktop, we're using plymouth instead - and the package looks
to be on autopilot from lucid on (last upload not triggered by an
archive-tidying QA problem was in karmic).

Since xsplash is code for which Canonical is upstream, and it appears to
now be unmaintained, should we be removing it from the archive?  I think
the answer is probably yes.
