As a person that doesn't make use of eatmydata-udeb, I'm not that clear
about how it was supposed to work, as such I'm CCing the person who
implemented the whole thing.
But from what I can see, what it does is to apt install eatmydata itself
into the base system after it's fully bootstrapped and apt configured.
and then it hooks itself into the chroot's apt configuration.

As such, afaik it wouldn't even help anything if we were to add
libeatmydata1.so into eatmydata-udeb.

I would be more interested in understanding why you think this is not
working as it is, since you didn't provide any proof of your claim.
OTOH, also my position is based only on reading the scripts provided in
eatmydata-udeb, and my limited understanding of how d-i works.
