Did you have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make this work? When "import cx_Oracle" is executed, I get the following error message
"ImportError: libclntsh.so.12.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

Isn't conda supposed to make the package relocateable. This should be possible to solve without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, right?

I see that cx_oracle is now available with anaconda https://anaconda.org/anaconda/cx_oracle .
I recommend that you don't use this gist. Go for the official package.
