Is gcc needed for Oracle database installation in OEL/RHEL?

in Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC) 5 comments

Some background to the question. After installing RU 19.29 and trying to enable unified auditing gives the following error

make -f ins_rdbms.mk uniaud_on ioracle ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME
/bin/sh: /usr/bin/gcc: No such file or directory
expr: missing operand

Issue is there in RU 19.30 as well.

Raised a support ticket and support person insist that gcc must be installed in order to install database software. (Once gcc is installed above issue goes away)

The is contradictory to all the support docs on installation

Requirements for Installing Oracle Database/Client 12.2 on OL8 or RHEL8 64-bit (x86-64)

Howdy, Stranger!
