Oracle provide several billion different downloads for reasons only they can
fathom.
Some of those are RPMs. RPM is the only package format officially recognised by
the Linux standards base
All linux variants are required to support it.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Standard_Base#Choice_of_RPM_package_format)
I'd go with the RPMs where possible.
It works for 10.2, the hardest part is finding the download on Oracle's website.
