12.04 - How to "uninstall" Plymouth Themes

I have been working with custom Plymouth themes and have ran into a little confusion. For a reason unclear to me, you have to enter the following:



sudo update-alternatives --install /lib/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth default.plymouth /lib/plymouth/themes/THEMENAME/THEMENAME.plymouth 100


into the Terminal to get the



sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth



Command to recognize your theme and then run the initramfs update.



My question is.. what is the SAFE way to uninstall (delete) a theme so that no fatal errors error? I would just delete the folder but I don't know if that would mess anything up within the system.



Any input is appropriated c:
