[root] Need unmodified debuggerd for KOT49H (4.4.2)

StickMount changed /system/bin/debuggerd and for some reason the /system/bin/debuggerd.backup that I found is the same damn modified version. So the OTA to go to KTU84L (4.4.3) fails for unexpected contents (SHA mismatch) on /system/bin/debuggerd.

Can someone please post the standard /system/bin/debuggerd from a 4.4.2 (KOT49H) system so I can get past this pain? Zip it so this forum will accept the attachment. Thanks in advance!
 
I keep running into this with stickmount also. So I just uninstall stickmount and flash system.img. That takes care of the debuggerd thing. Then flash stock recovery and take the update. All I have to do extra is reinstall stickmount and copy my notification toggle apk into /system when I'm done. Reinstall twrp and you will be prompted to regain root with supersu. If you get to 4.4.3, you can take the 4.4.4 update with twrp as long as /system is ok.
