So I think I've found the bad news part of my recent update 10 OS X 10.8…
DBI installed just fine, went to install DBD::Oracle and at first it failed entirely because it couldn't ID the Pracle version; then I discovered that the 64-bit Instant Client does not work in 10.7 or 10.8 : <https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2318019&start=30&tstart=4> Switch to 32-bit client, sqlplus runs ok, and the install of DBD::Oracle starts auspiciously: CPAN.pm: Going to build P/PY/PYTHIAN/DBD-Oracle-1.52.tar.gz Using DBI 1.622 (for perl 5.012004 on darwin-thread-multi-2level) installed in /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/DBI/ Configuring DBD::Oracle for perl 5.012004 on darwin (darwin-thread-multi-2level) Remember to actually *READ* the README file!
