Who can help to resolve the issue when I install oracle client 12?

Question

I want to install oracle client12 so I downloaded oracle db server from oracle site. I guess oracle client was included in it since I can not find separate package of oracle client(not instant version). But I encounter the below issues.

Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2015-08-15_04-11-33AM. Please wait ...[ccms@igbdc80120 database]$ Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /tmp/OraInstall2015-08-15_04-11-33AM/jdk/jre/lib/amd64/xawt/libmawt.so: libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It can not find the .so file, but why it need to find the .so from /tmp? How to get around it? thanks.

You may want to consider using a Linux distribution supported by Oracle. — Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen, Aug 15 '15 at 08:59

The OUI comes bundled with its own copy of Java to minimize the required dependencies, this is the copy that's running from /tmp. The unsatisfied dependency is libXtst.so.6.

Try this, as per this answer:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libxtst6

what does '/tmp/OraInstall2015-08-16_10-37-58PM/jdk/jre/lib/amd64/xawt/libmawt.so: libXtst.so.6' mean? can not find libmawt.so or libXtst.so.6? – liam xu Aug 17 '15 at 02:54
I believe `libmawt` is fine (it's part of the Java library which is part of the installer), but not finding `libXtst`, which is a depedency expected to be found on your system. – hugh Aug 17 '15 at 11:45
