[SOLVED] plymouth theme switches back to spinner one when using enc..

hi.
I have installed plymouth and plymouth-theme-arch-charge-big.
I have added plymouth hook to HOOKS in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and changed the encrypt hook to plymouth-encrypt.

But when I boot, the plymouth-encrypt hook switches back the theme to the spinner (default theme), and for the rest of the boot it is the spinner theme.
It is the same with other themes as well.

It is as if those themes don't know how to deal with the encrypt hook and don't display it in their theme ?

How do i get an encrypt prompt with the theme I have defined and not in the spinner theme ?

Is it a bug ?

oops I got it right now.
I forgot to rerun mkinitcpio -p linux once more.
