Bug#608519: grub-pc: 05_debian_theme assumes background image was copied from an installed desktop-base

Package: grub-pc
Severity: important

I have a machine running unstable. The background image is
moreblue-orbit-grub.png which is in /boot/grub. The image was copied
from desktop-base but the package itself has never been installed on the
system and, due to space restrictions, never will be.

The recent upgrade has deleted moreblue-orbit-grub.png and made it
impossible for it to be used when in /boot/grub. Basically, you can have
any image in that location provided it isn't moreblue-orbit-grub or
debian-blueish-wallpaper-640x48!
