[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#978598: net-snmp: reproducible builds: embeded paths to "ps" and "uname"

[Vagrant Cascadian]

Severity: normal

Various files contain an embedded paths to the "uname" and "ps"
commands:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/bullseye/amd64/diffoscope-results/net-snmp.html

  ./usr/bin/net-snmp-create-v3-user
  
  if·/bin/ps·-e·|·egrep·'·snmpd·*$'·>·/dev/null·2>&1·;·then
  vs.
  if·/usr/bin/ps·-e·|·egrep·'·snmpd·*$'·>·/dev/null·2>&1·;·then


The attached patch fixes this by passing the UNAMEPROG and PSPROG
variables to configure.


This ensures that regardless of weather the system is built with a
merged /usr or a traditional system, the resulting binaries will be
useable on both systems (where compatibility symlinks for /bin ->
/usr/bin typically are present).


Thanks for maintaining net-snmp!


live well,
