Wouldn't it be easier to install it with StartupManager? It's a tool for boot options like grub and usplash and you can easily install it because it's in the official repositories.

The binary of the theme is "xubuntu-blink.so".. So, if I remember well, you have to select "xubuntu-blink.so" in the startup manager. Perhaps, you should however copy it into the /usr/lib/usplash directory.

Usplash

Usplash is a software project in the Ubuntu community. Historically, scrolling text "verbose mode" has typically appeared on Linux computers during boot. Usplash replaces the scrolling-text screens with a graphical splash screen. Wikipedia
