[Bug 822779] Re: dd: bad operand `--help'

Ubuntu natty 64-bit
coreutils 8.5-1 ubuntu6

I find out a reason, somehow today I got following files and directories
in my home directory

bin  conf  etc  init  lib  lib64  sbin  scripts

and in bin directory there was

busybox  date  dmesg   halt    ipconfig  loadkeys  mount     ntfs-3g     poweroff  resume    setfont  sleep
cpio     dd    fstype  insmod  kbd_mode  losetup   nfsmount  pivot_root  reboot    run-init  sh


I did play with initramfs-tools, is that possible to happen, accidentally?

Anyway, sorry to bother you, my deep apologies.

Faruk
