Bug Description
Binary package hint: mountall
This is with up-to-date i386 lucid installed afresh from alpha 3.
I have just applied the latest update to plymouth (0.8.0~-13) and rebooted. However, mountall can't run because it can't find libplybootclien
I suppose there is a matching update to mountall coming up which links to the right library, but this shouldn't have happened in the first place.

Just a brief note outlining how to get the computer booting again, in case someone finds it useful. I assume that the APT cache contains the previous plymouth packages: $name_of_ your_root_ partition apt/archives
- Boot from a live CD/USB stick
- Mount your / partition by selecting it under the "Places" menu
- Open a terminal
- Type:
sudo bash
chroot /media/
cd var/cache/
sudo dpkg -i *ply*-12*.deb
- Reboot
