 From the official FAQ:

On RedHat 8.0 or up I get "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lelf"?
----------------------------------------------------------

   A typical installation of RedHat 8.0 and up doesn't always include
   the full set of 'libelf' library links.  In order to build Net-SNMP
   you may need to install the 'elfutils-devel' RPM.

   A alternative quick fix is to add the missing symbolic link, using:

     ln -s libelf.so.1 /usr/lib/libelf.so

   (or whatever the correct library is on your system).
   This is typically only needed when you've configured the agent to
   include the Host Resources MIB support ('--with-mib-modules=host').
