The JDBC drivers not packaged anywhere?

Downloading https://download.oracle.com/otn_software/mac/instantclient/instantclient-basic-macos.zip, I see that ojdbc8.jar is part of that zip.

But you do not package it.

$ cd /opt/homebrew/Cellar
$ find . -iname ojdbc8.jar
$

Any chance to add this to the basic package, or create an instantclient-jdbc package?

The JDBC client jar is needed by DBeaver.app, for example, which is also avaiable in Homebrew.

The following files from the instantclient-basic-macos.zip above are not installed in the instantclient-basic receipt:

BASIC_LICENSE
BASIC_README
adrci
genezi
network/
network/admin/
network/admin/README
ojdbc8.jar
ucp.jar
uidrvci
xstreams.jar

I am not familiar enough with Oracle to understand what each of them does, but I do know that I need to point dbeaver-community at the ojdbc8.jar via the Database -> Driver Manager -> Oracle menu.
