In the e-mail from Tim Harsch part of the diagnostic said:
"The oracle.mk (or demo_rdbms.mk) file is part of the Oracle
RDBMS product. The proc.mk (or demo_proc.mk) file is part of
the Oracle Pro*C product. You need to build DBD::Oracle on a
system which has one of these Oracle components installed.
(Other *.mk files such as the env_*.mk files will not work.)"
(The actual wording here will probably depend on the version of DBD-Oracle.)
I know this says you only need one of Pro*C and RDBMS but my experience
recently on HP required me to install both. It's worth a try if you are
having trouble.
