[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#556787: libsnmp-base: Fails when fails to fetch MIBs

[chris+debian at chiappa.net]

Package: libsnmp-base
Version: 5.4.2.1~dfsg-2
Severity: normal


I'm behind a firewall and need to go through a web proxy.  I guess
libsnmp-base doesn't use wget which is how most other .debs seem to
download things - I get a long stream of "not found:"
WARNING: Module(s) not found: RFC1155-SMI 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: RFC1213-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: SMUX-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: CLNS-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: RFC1381-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: RFC1382-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: RFC1414-MIB 
WARNING: Module(s) not found: SNMPv2-M2M-MIB 
...
WARNING: Module(s) not found: ADSL-LINE-MIB ADSL-TC-MIB 
...
and then a patch failure:
...
WARNING: Module(s) not found: URI-TC-MIB 
patch -d /usr/share/mibs/ietf.orig < rfcmibs.diff; \
      rm -f /usr/share/mibs/ietf.orig/*orig
can't find file to patch at input line 4
Perhaps you should have used the -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff -ru /usr/local/share/snmp/rfc.orig/ADSL-LINE-MIB /usr/local/share/snmp/rfc/ADSL-LINE-MIB

File to patch:  

of course skipping the first patch goes on to the next one, etc...
