I just happened to notice 12.1.0.2 for x86 is out.

It looks like Oracle have updated the x86-64 packages to 12.1.0.2.0 but the x86-32 packages are still on the same version 12.1.0.1.0. Because this package handles both platforms, I can't update one without the other. I will leave it a few days and check again, and perhaps consider splitting the package if it doesn't look like 32-bit is going to get an upgrade, but for the time being I'm going to unflag this as out of date given that it is still the latest version for one of the supported platforms. If anyone notices the 32-bit version get an update, please flag this package out of date again.

PKGBUILD version bump and integrity check update works for me with 12.1.0.2.0.

@mloskot: if you want, be my guest, I no longer work with Oracle stuff so you can take up the packages and do what you want with them

Updated to 12.1.0.1.0

@Malvineous Understood. I have asked Tomato, maintainer of the instantclient-* packages, perhaps he will explain https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/instantclient-basic/?comments=all

@mloskot: I'm not sure what the difference is. When I took over maintaining these packages instantclient-* were merged in with oracle-instantclient-* (https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2012-March/018218.html) but it looks like someone has recreated a couple of packages with the old instantclient-* names. Maybe they can advise why? The advantage of installing into /usr as these packages do is that much less configuration is needed (and you usually don't have to specify the path to Oracle when compiling software.) The downside is that you can only have one version installed at a time, but for the majority of cases this isn't a problem.

FYI, on aur-general ml, I have proposed to merge/unify all Oracle InstantClient, I'd appreciate your comments: https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2013-March/022785.html

Just FYI I am experimenting with providing Arch packages of these so they don't have to be downloaded separately and you can do the install using only pacman. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Oracle_client for details.
