+
+Actually... it would be my recentish change/fix in
+/usr/share/bootsplash/scripts/make-boot-splash-raw in which $foo.img is
+now replaced with
+# gzip > $foo.img.tmp
+# mv -f $foo.img.tmp $foo.img
+while it previously was a direct
+# gzip > $foo.img
+
+I've now added a "readlink -f" in the beginning of the script so that it
+will operate on the symlink target directly, in bootsplash-3.3.8. Thanks
+for noticing this.
