Xubuntu 16 Plymouthd crashes on every boot
I get three crash errors with every boot-up. This is the first one.

I have tried
sudo chown -R $USER: /lib/plumouth
and
audo apt-get install plumouth-x11
and
dpkg-reconfigure Plymouth
But none of these have solved the problem.

The problem is well-known. There is even a bug report.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/1542000
Decides whoever can.
Try
sudo chown -R : /sbin/plymouthd
One helps, one does not. I was helped to remove plymouthand installed plymouth using Synaptic, and it fixed the problem.

This worked for my Dell i5 7000 laptop running Ubuntu 16.04 Mate DE.
Are you sure this does something? I believe that this doesn’t do anything. What do you think it does?
