Public bug reported:

In order to translate SNMP Objects  to oids  you need the mib. After you 
install your mib in /usr/share/snmp/mibs and restart snmpd:
snmptranslate  -m all -Onf -IR MyMIBObject ......works
but
snmptranslate  Onf -IR MyMIBObject ...... fails

Adding "mibs +all" to snmpd.conf does not work as the documentation says
it should. There is no snmp.conf in /etc/snmp.

To get the translation to work you need $HOME/.snmp/snmp.conf with "mibs
+all" in it.

What should happen is the package creates $HOME/.snmp/snmp.conf
automatically and adds  "mibs +all"  as a default if thats appropriate.
Documentation should change to make it clear what is controlled by
snmp.conf ( and maybe there should be a global one too) and by
snmpd.conf
