While installing oci-8 for my Ubuntu system (22.04 lts). I have tried installing libdev library and some other libraries but issue remains same.
It says that it can find the instaclient in the given LD LIBRARY PATH path but the installation still crashes.
gem install ruby-oci8
Building native extensions. This could take a while...
