But compiling this fails! Why?
The Perl module tends to delve quite deeply into the internals of the
main Net-SNMP library, and so is quite sensitive to changes within the
library. It's important to use the correct version of the module, that
corresponds to the version of the library you have installed. If you're
working with a Net-SNMP source distribution, the appropriate versions of
the Perl module are shipped as part of this, but you must have
run "make install" on the main Net-SNMP distribution first.
If you're working with a ready-installed version of the library, make sure you obtain a compatible version of the Perl module.
Note that the Perl modules will be compiled using the compiler
(and compiler settings) used for compiling the original perl binary,
not those used for compiling the Net-SNMP (or UCD) library.
If these are different (e.g. 'gcc' used for one and 'cc' for the other)
then this may well cause problems. It's much safer to use a consistent
environment for both. This issue is discussed in greater detail in
the README.solaris file.
Also note that the v5 Net-SNMP suite must be configured to provide shared libraries in order for the Perl modules to work correctly. This is not necessary with the v4 UCD-SNMP libraries.
