netmrg fails to build with the multiarch net-snmp in unstable, as
follows:
configure: error: Cannot find SNMP libraries. Use --with-snmp-lib-dir= to
specify non-default path.
make: *** [config.status] Error 1
configure is really being far too controlling here; this problem goes
away if configure scripts are prepared to admit that the system linker
might have a clue where to find system libraries. However, here's a
patch to work around this brain damage for now.
* Work around configure wanting to know too much detail about where a
system libsnmp.so is installed rather than trusting the linker.
