Hi
For solve libstdc++5 problem you shouldn’t downgrade this library. you need just link /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 to /usr/lib/libstd++.so.6
ln -s /usr/lib/libstd++.so.6 /usr/lib/libstd++.so.5

Also works on Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon), but change ORACLE_HOME value in step 5 to “$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0″ instead of “$ORACLE_BASE/product/10gR2″. If you tried to install XE first and failed, also be sure to carefully clean-up after it (especially the default directory of Oracle account).

Thank you very much for this excellent, concise, and accurate posting!
