There is a file named linclntsh.so in $ORACLE_HOME/lib. Usually thist directory is part of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

In general: it makes sense to set ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, ORACLE_SID, and NLS_LANG before calling the installation procedure. Do this by creating /etc/profile.d/oracle.sh, which is sourced upon login (see /etc/profile).
