Bugzilla Bug 132791

The emerge stops with:

checking for Oracle (OCI8) support using Oracle Instant Client... yes
checking Oracle Instant Client directory... tail: `-1' option is obsolete; use
`-n 1' since this will be removed in the future
/usr/lib/oracle/current/client/lib
checking Oracle Instant Client SDK header directory... configure: error: Oracle
Instant Client SDK header files not found

The reason lies in the configure script of php which sets:
  OCISDKZIPINC=$PHP_OCI8_INSTANT_CLIENT/sdk/include
but $PHP_OCI8_INSTANT_CLIENT/sdk/ does not exist

Installed Oracle Client:
eix -e dev-db/oracle-instantclient-basic

     Available versions:  !10.1.0.2_p1 !10.1.0.2_p1-r1 !10.1.0.3 !10.1.0.4
!10.2.0.1 10.2.0.1-r1 10.2.0.2
     Installed:           10.2.0.1-r1

Kind of "worksforme", also with the 10.2.0.1-r1 version you are using.

A fix to ext/oci8's configure was added to dev-lang/php-4.4.2-r6, please try
that release as soon as it appears on the mirrors in a couple of hours. I'm not
exactly sure it will help, because I never was able to reproduce this problem
either.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

The problem still persists The reason seems to be the contents of
/usr/lib/oracle:

 ls l /usr/lib/oracle 
total 28
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root  4096 Jan 31 11:24 10.2.0.1
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root     8 Mar 30 14:53 current ->10.2.0.1

So configure determines /usr/lib/oracle/current/client/lib as
PHP_OCI8_INSTANT_CLIENT. But /usr/include/oracle does not contain the "current"
link:

ls l /usr/include/oracle
total 16
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root 4096 May  9 15:41 10.2.0.1

So the test test -f "$OCISDKRPMINC/oci.h" fails which would otherwise succeed.
And the test test -f "$OCISDKZIPINC/oci.h" fails because
$PHP_OCI8_INSTANT_CLIENT/sdk does not exist on my machine. So the problem seems
to be the "current" link mentioned above. May be the problem is in the
oracle-instantclient-basic ebuild.

Please test again and report back using php-4.4.6 and/or 5.2.1 and
instantclient-10.2.0.3. Neither CHTEKK nor I are able to reproduce this
problem.

instantclient-10.2.0.3. is ok. You can close the bug. Thanks!

Tobias, can we get this stabilized on x86?

Sure, we can.

@x86: please mark instantclient-basic-10.2.0.3 stable (and if you'd like to
also oracle-instantclient-jdbc and oracle-instantclient-sqlplus).

x86 stable and closing (basic only)

I went ahead and marked JDBC and SQL*Plus stable, too.  I have a friend at work
who says they work fine.
