Avoid using `echo -n` anywherelf/echo-n-is-not-portable
`echo -n` is non-portable. The POSIX specification says: Conforming applications that wish to do prompting without <newline> characters or that could possibly be expecting to echo a -n, should use the printf utility derived from the Ninth Edition system. Since all of the affected shell scripts use a POSIX shell shebang, replace `echo -n` invocations with printf.
