I've written Perl scripts that access MySQL databases through DBI and the 
appropriate driver for several years, and now I'm about to do the same but 
this time with an Oracle database. I thought it should be easy as typing 
"make", but me and a colleague has struggled with this for three days now.

I've successfully installed DBI-1.20 but it's when I try to install 
DBD-Oracle-1.12 it all fails. I have installed what I thought was the whole 
Oracle client, but "perl Makefile.PL" gives me this error:

    Unable to locate an oracle.mk, proc.mk or other suitable *.mk
    file in your Oracle installation.

Where do I find that file? And is it really nessecary to have a lot of 
other software installed just to use DBD::Oracle?
