Bug#550984: please include a file to describe GRUB background



Package: desktop-base
Version: 5.0.5
Severity: wishlist

Please could you include a file to describe the GRUB background?  It just
needs to define variables to indicate its file path and corresponding colors.

I propose the attached example.  It could be installed to
/usr/share/images/desktop-base/grub_background.sh, and then this file would
be sourced by GRUB scripts.

By doing this, you will no longer have to coordinate changes in the GRUB
background with us.  Simply adjust the file and select appropiate colors for
your background of choice.  This makes it much easier for Debian-based
distributions to change the desktop-base background.

Thanks
