Our testing infrastructure runs Debian 6, and as far I have seen, setting up Oracle on it would be a pain. To get the oracle backend into testing, I see two options (a) provide us with good and reliable instructions on getting Oracle to run on Debian 6, without messing up the system with lots of non-packaged stuff. (b) set up a testing instance on your end. I'm happy to provide any details about our Jenkins setup to make that easy. Furthermore, the patches in http://wiki.powerdns.com/trac/ticket/527 could use some review from somebody with an actual deployment.
