Package:  snmpd
Version:  5.2.1.2-4
Severity: wishlist

At the moment, the snmptrapd server do not seem to support running as
a non-privileged user.  I would be a lot more comfortable if it would
drop its privileges as soon as it has bound to the 162 port, and
process all incoming data as a non-root user.

This do not seem to be supported by the current implementation, so I
guess this should be sent as a wishlist request to upstream, but I
also believe it should be registered as a wish against the debian
package.  I have not contacted upstream about this, as I do not have
time to track down who to talk to at the moment. :)
