Its a hack. And an ugly one at that. The cookbook is for an older release [Quoted] of Oracle, not sure if it would work for the newer one. This makes it even more uglier. Getting the SCO binariess needed for this cookbook is [Quoted] not easy either. I haven't tried SCO. From what I hear its really ugly. [Quoted] Bringing in binaries from an ugly OS would make this whole thing super-ugly :)

[Quoted] [Quoted] It seems it would easier and cleaner and nicer if Oracle would compile Oracle for Linux. Everybody would live happily ever after :)
