I would strongly suggest that you run with *one* of these two
installations.   You currently seem to be mixing the two,
which is bound to lead to confusion.

This is the agent that you compiled yourself.....

... which is probably looking for /usr/local/share/snmp/snmpd.conf
(among other possible locations)
   It will *not* be looking in /etc/snmp

This is the version that came with the RPM, and is looking
for /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf (only)


Decide which version you wish to run, stick with that, and
remove the other one.   You'll find it much less confusing
in the long run.
