One more try on Debian Etch

[Joel Roberts]

Thanks to all for the input, I didn't realize there were alternatives to
the check_snmp out there, I'll look into the Patrick's Plugins.

Ah, understood. I do not use the check_snmp plugin, I use Patrick proy's
snmp plugins. I misunderstood the requirements of the check_snmp plugin.
With patrick's plugins they only require the perl Net-snmp portion,
which is why I am using the CPAN version!

Umm, no. That will install perl-Net-SNMP (or some such), which is only
the perl-cruft into the net-snmp package. check_snmp is written in C,
so what you do with CPAN will have absolutely zero impact on how it
works.
