Do the oracle dependencies still exist for the postgres install? Just
doesn't seem right having to install oracle parts for the Postgres install.
I believe that we still have the dependency on the
oracle-instantclient-*, primarily because part of the game is
monitoring which has Oracle probes and thus needs Oracle client
libraries.
I think Mirek (?) was working on making that part of monitoring
optional.
I just checked the code we still require Oracle at 2 places in code:
1) package spacewalk-base-minimal
This is due file
modules/rhn/RHN/DB.pm
where we import
use DBD::Oracle qw(:ora_types);
and for blobs we set
$attr->{ora_type} = ORA_BLOB;
Patch for this issue is welcomed.
2) Regarding the monitoring, I had the changes in my local branch, I
worked on that today and pushed it, so if you install
spacewalk-posgresql you should not need DBD::Oracle (if it's still need
it, report it).
I'm going to check if you will have still the option to choose Oracle
probes when you will not have that module installed. (apparently it
should be hidden), will report tomorrow my findings.
