@spider-mario: It's not about AUR, it's about [community].

I think it’s OK. The binaries are not redistributed, the PKGBUILD just automates the download from Oracle’s website, so they can still “keep track of how many people are downloading these binaries”.

@muflone: Please, read the comments, at least the ones from yesterday.

Look into section 7. It's dead.
seblu commented on 2012-09-17 17:15 (UTC)
We must ask permission to Oracle. I will look into this.

Is there any chance that this package grants by InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH to re-distribute from binary?

There is no version dependency on this package on purpose! You could read comments back from 2011 to understand why.
