More or less - it's probably because the script in ''dist/snmpd-init.d"
was written for a RedHat-based environment,  and things are likely
to be subtly different under Ubuntu.

You are probably better off starting from the vendor-supplied init.d
script, and tweaking that as necessary.

What is the binary that this script is trying to run?
If it's a vendor-supplied init file, then it's probably trying to
start the vendor-supplied agent - typically in /sbin/snmpd
or similar.
   If you've compiled the agent for yourself, then this is
most likely to be in /usr/local/sbin/snmpd,  so you would
need to tweak the init.d script to start the correct agent.

Note that this is reading the config file under /etc/snmp.
Again, this would tend to indicate that this is the vendor-supplied
agent, rather than one you compiled yourself.

What is on line 112 of this file?

Who are you running this as?  Root, or some other user?
