Since desktop-base 9.0.6 there is (half-ready) support for Plymouth
theme management via `update-alternatives --config desktop-theme`.
I say, half-ready because: For theme <some-theme> Plymouth expects to
find a folder named /usr/share/plymouth/themes/<some-theme>/
('debian-theme' folder exists at that location) and in that folder it
expects to find a theme configuration file <some-theme>.plymouth (i.e.
for a virtual Plymouth theme 'debian-theme' it would expect a file
'debian-theme.plymouth'.
If a user configures 'debian-theme' as their Plymouth theme like:
```
$ sudo plymouth-set-default-theme debian-theme
/usr/share/plymouth/themes/debian-theme/debian-theme.plymouth does not exist
```
... it ends with above error message. The reason for it is that the
active Plymouth theme folder contains '<real-theme-name>.plymouth',
but not 'debian-theme.plymouth'.
I have attached a .debdiff to get this fixed.
