I haven't had a chance to try your suggestion *yet*, I will soon, but I
have an semi-unrelated question:
Can either of these libraries called my MRTG be told to honor
~/.snmp/snmp.conf? If they're using the underlying Net-SNMP PERL modules,
it should "just-work" if they're using the underlying function calls.
In my experiences, it is not honored by MRTG SNMP calls, but that may be
related to the use of Net::SNMP instead SNMP::Session
[I'm still not sure how I convince MRTG to use one over the other, but
we'll get to that after I sober up on Monday]

To answer your question ...
The version of p5-SNMP-Util in FreeBSD ports is:
PORTNAME= SNMP-Util
PORTVERSION= 1.8
MASTER_SITES= ${MASTER_SITE_PERL_CPAN}
Which is fetched from CPAN; presumably based on the 1.8 version number
this is something entirely different from what you're written?
Well either way this whole thing is a mess. My proposed solution is to
paint my face green and start drinking Guinness. I'll chase this up on
Monday.
