This bugreport is due to the fact that someone decided to rip essential
mibs off libsnmp-base and put them into non-free (NOT contrib, as
NEWS.DEBIAN.gz suggests) snmp-mibs-downloader package.


THATS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO DO.


People stumbling over this bugreport should consider installing this
package:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/snmp-mibs-downloader

Essentially, i'd recommend everyone using snmp to install this package.


i'm tempted to push the severity to critical, but i'll leave that to
people less frustrated than i am now.
