zopen-query fails when there are too many tools installed

[IgorTodorovskiIBM]

zopen upgrade which calls zopen query fails when there are too many tools installed:

echo: printInstalledEntries 15: /home/itodoro/zopen-official/usr/bin/lib/zopen-query 365: FSUM9209 cannot execute: reason code = c413005b: EDC5145I The paramete\ list is too long, or the message to receive was too large for the buffer.

The issue is that echo has a limit to the # of args:

[\u@\h \w]$ installedPackages=$(find . -type l)
[\u@\h \w]$ echo $installedPackages
echo: FSUM9209 cannot execute: reason code = c413005b: EDC5145I The parameter list is too long, or the message to receive was too large for the buffer.
[\u@\h \w]$

try our echo instead of /bin/echo? or better yet printf 😁

The code grabs all symlinks within the packageinstall directory structure - which works fine unless a package ships with symlinks already [such as the ncurses man pages which ships many!!]. Fix is to ensure that the search doesn't return symlinks below the package/package tree [since there is no -depth param on standard zosfind].

printf works!

I would suggest bundling findutils but there's an issue where it doesn't close file descriptors: zopencommunity/findutilsport#16 which I'd prefer if we fix first.

@IgorTodorovskiIBM sounds like this is now fixed correct?
