Deinstallation of Oracle database software error at 19.11/19.12

If you call the deinstallation script ./deinstall.sh from $ORACLE_HOME/deinstall on Oracle Linux you might get an error:
ERROR: oracle/rat/tfa/util/ManageTfa
Exited from program. 

I tried to use the ./runInstaller -detachHome trick as a workaround, but there was another error raised.

The only workaround that was running was to rollback the 19.11/19.12 RU from the software home and run deinstall.sh again. 

For detailed description you can check my blog: https://a-different-view-by-js.blogspot.com/2021/09/databasedeinstallrattfaerror.html

Maybe someone can add here, if this error also happens on MS Windows/AIX/Solaris. 
Thanks
Regards
