This is significantly less readable. I don't think it's worthwhile to have a bunch of these PRs trying to fix Busybox bit by bit, sorry. If you can open one that entirely fixes it and add a new GitHub Actions target to ensure it doesn't regress, we'll consider that (but may still reject it if too invasive).

The uninstall script is not used often, and it would be easy to edit it before executing, so this PR is closed. |

finddo not support-lname: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/utilities/find.htmlThe purpose of this #PR is the same as #1010, which is to use the busybox toolchain to run the script.
It seems a bit too complicated and reduces readability. Feel free to close this PR.
