> The count_bytes solution looks better to me

The updated patch is attached.

I've just checked: all the *_bytes flags were introduced to dd in the
same commit
https://github.com/coreutils/coreutils/commit/140eca15c4a3d3213629a048cc307fde0d094738,
so it is safe to throw in count_bytes in the mix.

> I see four dd calls in unmkinitramfs. Can you check those as well?

The other dd calls are good:
- 2x of bs=1 kind
- the last one is "dump from X till the end" utilizing skip_bytes for X, which 
is correct

> Debian is affected as well. If you can spare the time, please submit
your patch

Will do when they activate my just created account on salsa

** Patch added: "Add count_bytes iflag"
