Topic: PHP 8.0.5 requires oracle_instantclient21.1

Hi,

today php-8.0.5 was build, and for package php-oci8-8.0.5 the oracle_instantclient21.1 is "required".
The php-oci8-8.0.5 package also did not mention the dependency.

where could I find the oracle_instantclient21.1-basic for centos EL7?

Ah - oracle changed the naming for the oracle_instantclient:

oracle-instantclient18.1-*
...
oracle-instantclient19.1
..
oracle-instantclient19.9
oracle-instantclient19.10

but now they remove the number:
oracle-instantclient-* <- which is 21.1 now wink
