Package: snmptrapd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-1.7
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I have to use the snmptrapd with some special mib-files from the
vendors of my hardware suppliers (like Dell, Brocate, Enterasys, Sun,
Rittal, ...).
Therefor I defined the MIBSDIR environment variable on my own in the
file /etc/default/snmptrapd.
With the introduction of systemd there is a systemd service unit file
provided in the package snmptrapd, located at
/lib/systemd/system/snmptrapd.service
Unfortunately this file contains the environment MIBSDIR hard coded.
Because I would prefer to change only files in /etc for configuration
issues I would ask, if you can change the systemd service unit file like
this:
---
[Unit]
Description=Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Trap Daemon.
After=network.target
ConditionPathExists=/etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf
[Service]
EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/snmptrapd
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmptrapd -f $TRAPDOPTS
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
---
With the parameter EnvironmentFile you can read the configuration from
/etc/default/snmptrapd and so you only have one file for the old and the
new init way.
I hope this helps and you can realize again the flexibility of the
configuration.
Best regards,
Ingo Rauschenberg

This is the correct way to handle systemd init definitions. There is
also a note about the /etc/default/snmptrapd file.
