Sure, I was referring to installing the entire Oracle datbase server on
Linux. When you do that, it requires that the JRE be present on the
system just for the installation. The installation is a GUI. The Oracle
documentation says not to try using the JDK, but to use the JRE.

The reason I said that the entire installation process of Oracle/PHP
was a pain is because we installed the Oracle database instead of the
client. Having never done that before, it WAS a pain. :)
