mib2c doesn't work properly

> emerge Net-SNMP
> emerge net-snmp
> mib2c MY-MIB.txt

ERROR: You don't have the SNMP perl module installed.  Please obtain
this by getting the latest source release of the net-snmp toolkit from
http://www.net-snmp.org/download/ .  Once you download the source and
unpack it, the perl module is contained in the perl/SNMP directory.
See the INSTALL file there for instructions.

try ucd-snmp

Comment 3 Nick Palmer 2003-09-25 13:48:03 UTC

Same thing with ucd-snmp.

does it still not work with net-snmp-5.0.9-r1?

Comment 5 Nick Palmer 2003-10-02 12:30:05 UTC

Yes, 5.0.9-r1 does not work any better. Does anybody else have mib2c working
properly?

Ok, the perl support that comes with net-snmp is not getting installed. 
I'll work on getting this optionally depended on the perl USE flag.  Stay
tuned.

Please give net-snmp-5.0.9-r2 a spin.  Make sure you have USE=perl enabled.
