Hi!
Have you tried this?
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/
server/
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
sudo apt-get install python-dev python-setuptools
sudo -E easy_install cx_Oracle
Test:
$ python
>>> import cx_Oracle
>>> cnxn = cx_Oracle.connect('system/systempasswd@xe')
>>> crsr = cnxn.cursor()
>>> crsr.execute('SELECT * FROM dual')
