This script was of great help when I installed 12.2 a while back. I had to do it manually since the script was kind of crude and some things were wrong (like putting SDK files on lib directory).

Now that 19.3 is out I decided to upgrade, and this time I made some scripts which I think must work on every Mac.

You can check them here if you want to use them: Oracle Instant Client 9.3 Install Scripts for macOS
