It has been excluded.

Note that I am cross compiling net-snmp for an embedded target.
I wonder if I am forgetting to download something?

I usually download the applications and libraries:
libnetsnmphelpers.so.30.0.3
libnetsnmp.so.30.0.3
libnetsnmpmibs.so.30.0.3
libnetsnmpagent.so.30.0.3
libnetsnmptrapd.so.30.0.3
