Issue Bug/patch Comment Assigned to
fuzzy "enable embedded perl by default" - Only enable embedded perl if it will successfully compile later on. We currently just --enable-embedded-perl by default. hardaker/tanders
UCD-SNMP-MIB::systemStats - Reported to be broken on some systems (Solaris, some RHEL Linux machines). Breaks "make test" (CPU test on Solaris, snmpwalk test on Linux).  ?
no perl/agent/Support/Makefile - With some perl versions "make perlmodules" will not create perl/agent/Support/Makefile from Makefile.PL, so the build will fail (e.g. on Solaris 8 with system-supplied Perl) hardaker/tanders
Solaris perl<->host issues (due to largefiles) Bug 1486366 Solaris system-supplied Perl is compiled with largefile support. The very same options break the build of the host module, though.  ?
64bit nlist Bugs 1485321, 1484814, 1388562 nlist fails on 64bit systems (AIX, IRIX, Tru64). We need 64bit capable auto_nlist replacement routines. Every system has its own variant and changes are needed all over the net-snmp code. :-( tanders
snmptrapd partial oid matching Patch 1536773 introduce partial oid matching for traphandle, e.g. "traphandle someOID* /call/on/subtree/matching"  ?
ifTable transient interface handling Bug 1238981, Patch 1513191 offer an (per-interface) config option how transient interfaces are handled in ifTable (same or different). A List FAQ. rstory?
Suppress error messages on SIGHUP  ? Remove the annoying, but harmless error messages on SIGHUP rstory?
