New version of instantclient packages available from Oracle. See http://otn.oracle.com/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/linuxsoft.html There were some changes in the filenames so I tried to adapt the ebuilds. They worked for me, so I am attaching them, but they probably need some reviewing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge oracle-instantclient-* 2. portage tries to install version 10.1.0.3 and points to a page to download the files 3. on the referred page, there's only version 10.1.0.4 available Actual Results: Nothing :) Expected Results: Install oracle instantclient packages $ emerge info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.4.3-20050110, glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.11-ck8-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-ck8-r1 i686 mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP2400+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.12 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, May 17 2005, 14:09:58)] distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-apps/sandbox: [Not Present] sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.9.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.16 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-ident" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fno-ident -Wl,-O1 -fvisibility-inlines-hidden" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://www.linorg.usp.br/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com" LANG="en_US.utf8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/local/kde-svn" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 #cpu #glibc #gnome #graphics #hardware #kde #kdeenablefinal #other #perl #print #sound #video 3dnow 3dnowext X aalib acpi alsa apm avi bash-completion berkdb cdr crypt cups curl directfb dvd emboss encode fam flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gphoto2 gpm hal imagemagick imlib ithreads java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad matroska mikmod mmx mmx2 mmxext motif mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib perl pic png ppds python qt quicktime readline rtc samba sdl slang specific spell sse ssl svga tcltk tcpd threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vorbis wifi win32codecs xine xml2 xv xvid zlib video_cards_radeon userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LINGUAS
Created attachment 61339 [details] Ebuild for the basic package
Created attachment 61340 [details] Ebuild for the JDBC package
Created attachment 61341 [details] Ebuild for the SQL*Plus package
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/linuxsoft.html doesn't show anything but 10.1.0.4, so we really need a bump
Gustavo, thank You for Your contribution. It was very helpfull. Based on Your work I corrected slightly (sdk/demo + sqlplus/jdbc errors) ebuilds and after testing commited it into portage. Thanks.
