For the Instant Client (at least the RPM version), the correct path is
something like:

 /usr/lib/oracle/x.y.z.a/client/lib

e.g.

 /usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.4/client/lib

Don't forget to (re-)run ldconfig for it to see your changes. I use

 ldconfig -v | grep clnt

to verify that ld.so can find the Oracle libs. If you see libclntsh.so
listed and pointing to a file, you should be good to go :)

The path to enlightenment is /usr/bin/enlightenment.
