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. (This will not be fixed by 5.4 (Wes)) | ? |
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? |
