Description:

This update for net-snmp fixes the following issues:

  • Install rc.snmptrapd in /etc/init.d/ to fix a problem during net-snmp package removal. (bsc#962733)
  • Fix a parsing error of CPU IDs greater than 100 inside /proc/stat. (bsc#961540)
  • Fix HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageSize truncation to 32 bits. This is done by raising the HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageAllocationUnits size. This behaviour is similar to net-snmp-5.7. (bsc#956229)

  • Fix a memory leak within the internal perl/TrapReceiver.
