+plymouth (0.9.5git20210406-0ubuntu2) impish; urgency=medium
+
+  * Add plymouth-switch-root-initramfs-Preload-text-renderin.patch to
+    preload all the graphics libraries required by plymouthd before the
+    switch occurs. So now casper can render text even from within the
+    initramfs regardless of library dependencies (LP: #1942987).
