+- Split x11 renderer into his own package; the x11 renderer allows
+  users to test plymouth themes; having it available on the devel
+  package will force people who just want to test a theme to
+  install a lot of unwanted dependencies. Being on it's own package
+  without explicit dependencies provides extra functionality to
+  users who want to test themes without having to rebuild initrd
+  and rebooting for testing.
