When installing cx_Oracle 8.3.0, the installation fails due to a compatibility issue with newer versions of setuptools.
Starting from setuptools v82.0.0, pkg_resources is no longer supported (see:
https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/blob/v82.0.0/NEWS.rst#deprecations-and-removals
).
Because of this removal, the installation process raises the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'According to the announcement “New major cx_Oracle release has a new name and repo: python-oracledb”, the cx_Oracle module has been replaced with python-oracledb.
As stated in the announcement, python-oracledb 1.0 is a new major release and the successor to cx_Oracle 8.3.
We have therefore updated the dependency to use python-oracledb version 2.0.0, which supports python3.11 while the 1.0 series don't support it.
How was this patch tested?
This patch was tested on the latest main branch of our company’s production Hue environment.
The module replacement (cx_Oracle → python-oracledb) was applied and verified in a running production setup.
