Comment 2 for bug 1674065

Hi chandresekar,
thank you for your report to make Ubuntu better.

A search showed me that this issue comes up every now and then when people have multiple versions of snmp installed out of different sources. Like one manual build with make install and one out of the archive. I found about 10 cases on my first page of a search engines answer, they all referred to the same reason.

On one of the cases there was a nice writeup about cleaning up to install just one correctly.

Since it seems likely to me that this is a local configuration problem, rather than a bug in Ubuntu, I'm marking this bug as Incomplete.

If indeed this is a local configuration problem, you can find pointers to get help for this sort of problem here: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community

Or if you believe that this is really a bug, then you may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your system, and then change the bug status back to New.
