Bug Description

libdrm_nouveau 2 is now in raring-proposed.
After dropping update-libdrm-nouveau-library-dependency.patch & refreshing autoreconf.

Maybe we need newer plymouth? bug 1022757

It fails to build from source.

disabling all the drm renderers besides the dumb ioctl one is probably the best way to go, it should be using the generic one. Also --disable-libkms would be useful, the dumb version that was backported in quantal supersedes it and its just a useless dependency. Note: nothing actually used libkms in plymouth.

see http://cgit.freedesktop.org/plymouth/commit/?id=8e932e9895bacf9b490e60e4be63d8902201e5d5 for the rationale of disabling the device specific drm drivers and http://cgit.freedesktop.org/plymouth/commit/?id=527400dc5a9da4cd3ef8a831e7309e1627d6b3b0 for info on the generic driver.

Interesting. I have now uploaded new upstream release of plymouth with above code.
I will check if we build device specific renderers & whether we should stop building them.
