I am trying to use this:
http://python.net/crew/atuining/cx_Oracle/html/cx_Oracle.html
it is a real module, right?

sudo easy_install cx_Oracle did not easy_install cx_Oracle.

http://www.python.org/pypi/cx_Oracle/4.3.1 doesn't give me any clue.

I got the source from
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cx-oracle/cx_Oracle-4.3.1.tar.gz?download

carl at dell17:~/a/cx_Oracle-4.3.1$ python setup.py build
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "setup.py", line 36, in ?
     oracleHome = os.environ["ORACLE_HOME"]
   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/UserDict.py", line 17, in __getitem__
     def __getitem__(self, key): return self.data[key]
KeyError: 'ORACLE_HOME'


Now I don't really know whos problem this is.
