migrate from mysql to oracle

["Master Brian" <mangabbs () hotmail com>]

Greetings, 

I'm trying to compile snort (1.9.1) --with-oracle support, I've downloaded and placed on my redhat 8.0 the oci 
libraries and with ./configure all works like a charm, but when I try to compile I get an error:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I../src -I/usr/include/pcap -I../src/output-plugins -I../src/detection-plugins 
-I../src/preprocessors  -I/usr/rdbms/demo -I/usr/rdbms/public -I/usr/network/public -DENABLE_ORACLE  -g -O2 -Wall -c

make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

So the problem seems the compiler cannot find -lclntsh, I've looked around with google and seems that many other people 
that are compiling php with oracle support have the same problem, but I didn't get how to fix this problem. I hope that 
you can help me. :)

Thank you!
