[Pkg-net-snmp-devel] Bug#942151: snmptrapd.service uses MIBSDIR instead of MIBDIRS

[Lincoln Ramsay]

Package: snmptrapd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-1.8ubuntu3.3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The snmptrapd.service file has this line:

Environment="MIBSDIR=/usr/share/snmp/mibs:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/iana:/usr/share/snmp/mibs/ietf:/usr/share/mibs/site:/usr/share/snmp/mibs:/usr/share/mibs/iana:/usr/share/mibs/ietf:/usr/share/mibs/netsnmp"

However, snmptrapd expects to see the MIBDIRS rather than MIBSDIR so this line
is not having the intended effect.

This seems to be a Debian packaging issue. I originally had issues running
reportbug so I reported this to Ubuntu instead. They informed me how to use
reportbug. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/net-snmp/+bug/1847377


I noticed this while trying to add a directory to the list (custom MIBs).
