Gentoo中，使用Django 连接 Oracle

[quote]Django supports Oracle Database Server versions 9i and higher. Oracle version 10g or later is required to use Django's regex and iregex query operators. You will also need the cx_Oracle driver, version 4.3.1 or newer.[/quote]

gentoo portage中没有cx_Oracle,所有要自己创建cxoracle.ebuild
创建ebuild具体方法－A2

ebuild cxoracle-4.3.1.ebuild digest
echo "dev-python/cxoracle ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge -av cxoracle

../settings.py

DATABASE_ENGINE = 'oracle'                    
DATABASE_NAME = 'orcl' 
DATABASE_USER = 'username'                      
DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'password'                  
DATABASE_HOST = 'hostname'                            
DATABASE_PORT = '1521'  

如有以下error出现,请安装最新版的cx_Oracle

$ python manage.py syncdb
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 11, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "//usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/core/management
