There are no RPMs. There is no need for them. The very purpose of RPMs is to manage instalation processes (install, uninstall, upgrade) on a server. For Oracle products this is handled by the strange beast, called Oracle Universal Installer (oui), so packing parts of Oracle 10G into RPMs would be an overkill.
