{{{
[....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?
