I noticed (from discussions  on the list, and a bit of playing around) that net-snmp 5.2 is  actually included in the base system. Given this, is there really a  need for a net-snmp package? Perhaps if someone wants an OpenSSL- enabled version... On that note, there are some patches in the Darwin source. (http:// darwinsource.opendarwin.org/10.4.1/net_snmp-16/patches/) Does anyone  know what the license is for these? I was hoping to use these for the  Fink package... According to the license file on the server http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/10.4.1/net_snmp-16/net_snmp.txt, the package has a BSD license. I would assume that this covers the patches, too. OTOH, it is perhaps a good idea to get rid of the package altogether. On Panther already fink's version was older than the system one. Would anyone have any objections to this? I would tend to agree with Martin, since it's included with the system now, and isn't a terribly important package. If there are no dependencies and no objections, I'll remove it from the 10.4-transitional and 10.3 trees in the near future... Thanks, Jeremy.
