this is related to
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=584657

i use "mibs +ALL" (including the plus)

# snmpwalk -c public -v 2c host system 2>/dev/null
SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = STRING: Foundry Networks EdgeIron 4802CF
SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = OID: 
FOUNDRY-SN-ROOT-MIB::edgeIronType2Mib.1.4.3.1
DISMAN-EVENT-MIB::sysUpTimeInstance = Timeticks: (274961701) 31 days, 
19:46:57.01
SNMPv2-MIB::sysContact.0 = STRING: [email protected]
....

so maybe this is related to the "+" in snmp.conf?

cheers,
raoul
