Package: splashy
Version: 0.3.13-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


During the installation the error "mv: cannot stat `/etc/splashy/themes': No such file or directory" occurs. 
The installation done with error "subprocess new pre-installation script returned error exit status 1". 

I try to purge before and reinstall splasy package, but the same error occurcs. 

I found a solution to create before the empty dir /etc/splashy/themes and resintall splashy: 
the installation now works fine.

I have splashy-themes package installed.

best regard
Gianluca
