Yes that's another solution, I hadn't thought so far yet. Right now I just want 
the thing to build ;) I figured that since I had already done 99% of the work 
building the snmp exporter, I could reuse the spec stack for the rest (upstream 
does not provide snmp exporter binaries, they need linking outside go land)

Thanks a lot

That was just defensive packaging on my part :) I don't want to package a set 
of exporters, only to find out one of them conflicts and requires renaming the 
rest. Upstream naming feels rather generic and collision-prone (plus I hate 
underscores in commands). That's peanuts to change later if needed
