I'm not sure of all the details but have we missed something with the OCI
extensions? Perhaps some injustice happened here? Probably it would be good
to write something about the OCI extensions before the voting started and
why these shouldn't be unbundled. Reasons in the RFC are quite strong and
it makes the extensions difficult to maintain. Not to mention that
installation on some platforms is not that trivial. That's why I've voted
in favor of unbundling. Otherwise, there are many quite successful PHP
extensions out there that are not part of PHP and are used extensively.
However, for the success Linux packages need to adopt them, so it's
possible to run sudo apt install or sudo dnf install.
Cheers.
