net-snmp plist file name is wrong

Reported by: macports-tickets@… Owned by: ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.1
Keywords: haspatch Cc: gjasny@…
Port: net-snmp

Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))

This file doesn't exist.

[....macports.org/release/ports/net/net-snmp]# port load net-snmp


Error: Target org.macports.load returned: Launchd plist /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.net-snmp.plist was not found

This is the right one:

[....macports.org/release/ports/net/net-snmp]# file /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.NetSNMP.plist

 
/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.NetSNMP.plist: XML 1.0 document text

This seems like something that would have been caught with the most basic of testing. Yes, I know it's free software/all-volunteer etc. but it's a waste of effort to offer something that doesn't actually work as described.

Also, the +server variant has to be selected to actually get an snmpd daemon installed. That seems like a POLA violation: why else would you install net-snmp?

Hello,

The attached patch fixes the startup file and default to the +server variant (needed as a xsnmp build dependency). I can see no reason why the agent should not be build.

Thanks, Gregor
