Yes!

You could perhaps set up the 'Makefile' and net-snmp-config.h files
manually, but you'd need to run configure once first, to find out the
appropriate settings.

I suppose you could run "make" (and "make install") manually once,
and capture the output. That output could then be used as a script
to compile and install the software  (having first been validated by
your build production people).

That might be acceptable to your company, but it feels like a lot
of unnecessary work.  If you don't trust the build procedure, why
would you trust the code itself?


How do they usually deal with installing open-source software?
