Ever, apparently.
This is the interview Rick did on September 1
https://www.democraticunderground.com/1034150780
and immediately posted about on his social media accounts...only to delete the posts by the next day, with no explanation.
Rick had looked really happy in the photo he posted September 1, which you can see in the thread at the link above. Noel hadn't looked as happy, but you can't read too much into that because his fans joke about him looking grumpy, and Noel's referred to the look as his "standard resting b*tch face" - see https://www.instagram.com/reel/C_0MKQWueUd/
But Rick wasn't happy tonight, when he finally gave his followers an update on the interview - saying that it's not coming out, and that's all he can say about it. No reason given. Reddit thread with video:

He added, "There may be another one in the future, but the one that I shot, it's not coming out."
There's lots of speculation as to why it isn't coming out among the fans on Reddit. One of the more popular guesses is that Noel had realized later he'd said too much to Rick, either about plans the band had that they didn't want revealed, or some other info that they'd decided should be left for the documentary they've filmed and are now editing from a lot of footage, on and off stage. Still, those sections if they exist could have been edited out.
Oasis did no other interviews during the tour, other than Noel calling the hosts of a UK TalkSports show he likes, to talk about the tour's early shows going well.
EDITING to point out reply 2 below, about what might be a likelier explanation of why the interview won't be released - that Rick most likely had agreed not to tell people about the interview during the tour, since they weren't doing other interviews, and he broke that agreement with the social media posts he quickly deleted. I'd mentioned that possibility back in September, in the earlier thread I linked to above.
