Page turns increment current page by 2

This has been going on for years. With my sideloaded kepubs, the page numbers are wrong. Going to the next page increases the current page number by roughly 2.2 (it’s displayed as an integer; around every 5 page turns or so increases by 3 instead of 2). Naturally, this means the book’s total size is listed as twice its actual length.

It only affects the "overall" page count; pages within the chapter are the expected 1:1.

I'm using a Forma with 4.34.20097. I've been sending the kepubs via KTE in Calibre. I tried creating the kepubs with kepubify instead, to the same result.

I do have a few patches enabled:

libnickel.so.1.0.0.yaml
* Replace adobe page numbers toggle with invert screen
* Swap reading header/footer
* Set KePub hyphenation

nickel.yaml
* Increase home screen cover size
* Increase library cover size
* Reduce new header/footer height
* Increase size of kepub chapter progress chart
* Increase Book Details synopsis area

I also have JSWolf's hyphenation patch, and I have "optimizelegibility" set in the configuration file living in .kobo/Kobo. Disabling optimizelegibility does not fix it.

My next port of call will be to install factory firmware (no patches) and see if it's still happening. If that fixes it, I will re-enable patches one-by-one until I find the culprit.

However! If someone knows off-hand what the issue is, that would be great (and save me some time). Thanks.
