[Bug 659376] Re: mibs absent from maverick
The above behaviour persists up to precise. I can see that the mibdirs include the locations where download-mibs puts them: root@precise:~# net-snmp-config --default-mibdirs /root/.snmp/mibs:/usr/share/mibs/site:/usr/share/snmp/mibs:/usr/share/mibs/iana:/usr/share/mibs/ietf:/usr/share/mibs/netsnmp root@precise:~# ls -l /usr/share/mibs total 12 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jun 7 2010 iana - /var/lib/mibs/iana lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jun 7 2010 ietf - /var/lib/mibs/ietf drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 23 23:12 netsnmp IE, the location is not broken, as Net-SNMP will follow the mibdirs variable.

It would be nice if net-snmp created /usr/share/snmp/mibs with a README file forwarding us to download-mibs and a bit of info about the change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 Title: mibs absent from maverick -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 659376] Re: mibs absent from maverick
There are libraries and applications that look for the mibs in /usr/share/snmp/mibs download-mibs is not creating them there. It uses a new one /var/lib/mibs with subdirectories iana and ietf Breaking the location has nothing to do with licensing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 Title: mibs absent from maverick -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

The net-snmp without MIBs is useless for a lot o people, please reconsider. -- mibs absent from maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 659376] Re: mibs absent from maverick
This is probably due to licensing reasons, auto-downloading MIBs from IETF or IANA is certainly considered distributing them. That's why Debian separated the MIB downloader and required user action to install them. I don't think Ubuntu would like to differ there... but I could be proven wrong. ** Changed in: net-snmp (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = Opinion -- mibs absent from maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

It would be informative useful if the absence, and the method to fetch the MIBS was made clearer. -- mibs absent from maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Reading the NEWS file: net-snmp (5.4.2.1~dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=low As of version 5.4.2.1~dfsg-4, this package no longer downloads the MIBs from IETF or IANA, but suggests the package snmp-mibs-downloader in contrib to do this job. Please consider installing this package if you need the SNMP MIBs. -- Jochen Friedrich joc...@scram.de Tue, 01 Dec 2009 14:29:14 +0100 So it appears you should install the snmp-mibs-downloader package and use /usr/bin/download-mibs ** Changed in: net-snmp (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- mibs absent from maverick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659376 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to net-snmp in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
