If Ethereal was built with support for SNMP MIB-file reading, it
requires UCD SNMP 4.2.2 or later (although you should use 4.2.4 or
later, as there are some buffer overflow bugs in earlier releases), or
NET-SNMP.  It will not work if it was dynamically linked with an SNMP
library and the SNMP shared library on your system is earlier than
4.2.2.

Somebody must've changed the SNMP library, or added a new version that
the run-time linker finds.
