-Coders,

one of the things that always strikes me with net-snmp is the fact that it handles an ".index" file in the mib directories. I'd actually expect vendors/packages to complain to us since maintaining an .index file in the main mib dir (like /usr/share/snmp/mibs) most often violates the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. From FHS 2.3, chapter 4: "/usr is shareable, read-only data [...] and must not be written to".

Has anyone ever thought of replacing the ".index" handling with something better?

Please share your thoughts. Feedback highly appreciated.
