expect a bit at the end reserved for possible MD metadata.

Yes, it should do the trick. Or divide by 1024 (and add 1 to the first one) and input the size as MiB, as partitions created by partman are expected to be aligned on 1-MiB boundaries.

NB: It looks like the first three partitions were created with input sizes 500 MB, 1 GB and 2 GB (decimal).
