Hadn't spotted that my dialog earlier with Howard was off list - I believe

Did you check under $ORACLE_Home/ cfgtooLlogs/opatch? There you
should find a log of the changes made to the Oracle software. Also there
sould be logs unser $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/catbundle which detail the
changes made to database objects. The logs I have, indicate the
database script generated only makes changes to the java virtual machine.
This assumes you had applied the database component of the July PSU.
Perhaps, if you don't have OVJM installed, it would do nothing.

We finally relented and gone for the quarterly patches from oracle driven
by security wonks rather than technical need . - is it unusual
- as with this patch that nothing has to be done? Ie opatch runs but
makes no changes.
