For new installs, we're not using the theme at all - right now anaconda
isn't setting GRUB_THEME at all, ever.
For old installs, you'll want to install starfield. I'm not really
sure what to do about this to make old installs work - we don't want to
Require the subpackage, because we don't want it installed on fresh
installs (and especially on live images where space is critical),
but obviously we've got no other way to pull it in on old installations.
As to why Joachim isn't seeing the subpackage in the repo - it's
"grub2-starfield-theme", I was just sloppy in the update description.
I've fixed that now.
