However, it looks like those two packages basically install RedHat 5.2. I'm assuming that Oracle doesn't require, for example, a fortran compiler (egcs-g77). Does anyone have a minimal list of rpms necessary to make Oracle happy? Would it be possible to make a port of just those? -Michael Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
