FWIW, I have oracle8-client-0.1.1_1 package running in FreeBSD 6-STABLE.
This package does not have sqlplus but allows me to connect to Oracle
using p5-DBD-Oracle-1.16_3 & p5-DBI-1.50 and perl.


$ pkg_info | egrep "Oracle|DBI"
oracle8-client-0.1.1_1 Oracle 8 client
p5-DBD-Oracle-1.16_3 DBI driver for Oracle RDBMS server
p5-DBI-1.50         The perl5 Database Interface.  Required for DBD::* modules

$ uname -sr
FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE

regards,
joseph
