I have a problem where a -lsnmp is being translated into some very odd
path.  Building 0.8.18 on a RH7.1 with UCB-SNMP.  I have
/usr/lib/libsnmp.so properly linked.  However when I 'make' I get the
error:

I can't figure out where the path for libsnmp.so is generated, not wanting
to take the time to figure out all the nuances of the Makefile, so I just
made a .libs subdir and added a link.  Compiles fine.

However, someone should fix the problem.  I am thinking the problem might
be in the libtool.  However, I have real work to do...;-)

Regards,

Dave.
