I haven't advertised it anywhere, so please consider it experimental.
And please, if you have issues with it, open a bug-report, write an email or contact me via any other medium. But don't complain in public forums and expect the developers to find this and fix stuff.
For instance, why didn't you open a bug-report that autoconf 2.67 is enough?
Regarding the problem with plymouth:
You cannot use plymouth together with any other application that uses graphics devices. Why do you want to use plymouth --show-splash from the console? It simply acquires all input/video devices and shows the splash screen. This doesn't work if another application (like xserver or kmscon) currently uses the devices.
I don't understand why anyone would want that? Could you elaborate a bit more?
Regards
David
