What do do when Oracle Universal Installer reports missing package pdksh-5.2.14 oracle

On RHEL 6, if you encounter situations where the OUI is complaining about the absence of a package pdksh-5.2.14 oracle, do the following:

1. Change directory to /database/stage/cvu/cv/admin 

2. Backup cvu_config: % cp cvu_config backup_cvu_config

3. Edit cvu_config and change the following line:

CV_ASSUME_DISTID=OEL4

to:

CV_ASSUME_DISTID=OEL6

4. Save the updated cvu_config file
5. Install the 11.2.0.3 or 11.2.0.4 software using /database/runInstaller

% cd /database
% ./runInstaller

When installing a 32-bit client like in my case, the OUI will warn that "all requirements have not been met".
This message can be ignored and you can proceed with the installation.
