My counsel is build to one of the supported platforms (Debian or
[a]Ubuntu), not derivatives. This can be done easily in a virtual machine.
There are some xenial-specific issues in general which are not there if
using a later release.
None of these comments may be relevant to your particular situation.
What is most relevant is that only a small number of distros are
supported and Debian/Ubuntu are the most supported.

Hello everyone.
This is my 1st post and I am not sure if it should be short or more
detailed. I have posted a question to Stackexchange
(https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/255565/building-qgis-2-18-12-on-linux-mint-18-2-sonya-with-oracle-provider),
with no answers so far, so I'll provide the most essential details
here, unless told otherwise.
I was trying to build QGIS on Linux Mint 18.2 (Sonya), in order to
have the Oracle provider - my setup is at the end of this message.
I tried to follow the instructions in
https://htmlpreview.github.io/?https://raw.github.com/qgis/QGIS/master/doc/INSTALL.html#toc11
, specifically 3.1 - 3.7 (3.8 seems to be a separate process, which I
also tried and failed) - in 3.3 I used the build dependencies for xenial.
Since this official guide doesn't mention Oracle at all (as if nobody
uses it!), I searched and tried to use a process like
https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/qgis-developer/2014-August/034230.html.
My command was:
|ccmake -DWITH_QWTPOLAR=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/ME/apps/qgis/master -DWITH_ORACLE=TRUE
-DOCI_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/ME/instantclient_12_2/sdk/include
-DOCI_LIBRARY=/home/ME/instantclient_12_2/libclntsh.so.12.1 .. |
|make -j|8
It failed (my 1st attempt in compiling, too).
Before going around asking questions, I thought it prudent to assure
the basics, so I tried to build the 'vanilla way', i.e. from the
source as I download it, without Oracle, without any changes in the
process. I made LD_LIBRARY_PATH null and issued:
|ccmake -DWITH_QWTPOLAR=OFF -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/ME/apps/qgis/master ..|
|make -j|8
