thanks

hplip *may* be breaking things too (hence why #389434 was reassigned),
but there is no way that snmpd should be creating files in
/usr/share/snmp/mibs - it's a clear violation of the FHS.

Separately, in fact, I can't reproduce that originally reported bug at
all - installing snmp-base, snmpd and hplip, then starting snmpd and
hplip does not cause the .index file to change - mtime and perms are
the same before and after I start hplip. Michael, two questions:

 * I'm curious - what makes you think hplip is to blame?
 * In what order did you install the packages; is there anything else
   I should know to help me reproduce this?

Thanks,
