[Pdns-users] Compiling Oracle backend

The oracle backend is depricated and the goracle backend seems to lack some 
support. If you want to use an Oracle database for PowerDNS I would suggest 
to use the opendbx backend and the OpenDBX oracle driver. The opendbx backend 
is part of the PowerDNS package and OpenDBX can be found at
