Hi, I can't even seem to get DBD::Oracle installed properly. When using the default Makefile I get the following error that it could not find defopt.o. 
gcc: /opt/oracle/product/10g/rdbms/lib32/defopt.o: No such file or dir

So I edited the make file to look in /opt/oracle/product/10g/rdbms/lib where the defopt.o file actually resides and make was a success. I still can't seem to use it though. After trying a small connect using DBD::Oracle I get the following error: 
Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/aut
+o/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: /usr/lib/perl5/site_p

A quick google points me to add the oracle client directory to my path. I tried pointing it directly to the client dir to /opt/oracle/product/10g/ without success, the problem still occurs. At this point I'm at a loss for what the problem could actually be. EDIT: More information. Here is $ENV. I noticed another PerlMonks thread to change ORACLE_ENV, but none is set.
