Show the UB logo in Details screen

[uD4ra]

We need help to add a small C based patch to the Details screen in GNOME Settings. It'll make it possible to show the budgie-remix logo in system Details screen. At the moment, it is hard-coded with the Ubuntu GNOME logo.

More info from @HEXcube here:

Patches by Ubuntu GNOME:

• 56_use_ubuntu_info_branding.patch
• ubuntu-gnome-version.patch

I will be trying to work on a fix. Might drop two; a temporary one for now and one that I will submit upstream to GNOME

[HEXcube]

Solus uses this patch to display Solus logo. They previously used another patch to display Budgie logo.

I will take care of this.
Forked gnome-control-centre and will apply then update with .patch file.

@FransHBotes that would be wonderful if you can do this - we can patch 16.04 and 16.10 like this.

For 17.04 though we will need to work with Ubuntu GNOME (they are the maintainers of gnome-control-centre for ubuntu) - we would need a generic method where both distros can "override" the base logo rather than hard-coding this via a C patch.

"I think ideally you would have a separate package that includes your icon and distro name changes. That package would use dpkg-divert in its scripts (pretinst maybe?) and clean up after itself (postrm?) when it's removed." - Jeremy Bicha

branding-ubuntu package has an example of how to use dpkg-divert

[fossfreedom]

fix required in both Pocillo Icons and budgie-desktop-common package
Pocillo icons needed a symbolic link "ubuntu-logo-icon.svg" pointing to our distributor logo in the 64/apps folder

budgie-desktop-common needed preinst and postrm dpkg-divert rules repointing /usr/share/icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/ubuntu-logo-icon.png to our version that is installed in the package

this can now be tested by adding the PPA ubuntubudgie-dev/unstable-test on 19.04(disco), updating.

An update to budgie-artwork containing a revised Pocillo will be made available in the unstable-test PPA shortly
