libdbd-oracle-perl for Debian
-----------------------------

To install this package, you need to install the Oracle Instant Client.
This can be downloaded free of cost (an "Oracle Account" is no longer
required):

<https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/downloads.html>

Click to "Instant Client for Linux x86-64" (amd64) or
"Instant Client for Linux x86" (i386), and get the RPM package (please,
note that Instant Client packages no longer include the release number
as part of the RPM name since release 21):

- Basic (oracle-instantclient-basic-*.rpm)

Optional: You can use Basic-Lite instead of Basic
          (oracle-instantclient-basiclite-*.rpm)

Make sure you have these packages installed to convert the
RPM files to Debian:

- fakeroot
- alien

Convert them to Debian packages:

$ fakeroot alien --scripts oracle-instantclient-*.rpm

Install them as root:

# dpkg -i oracle-instantclient-*.deb

and then you are ready to install this package.
