Regarding the contents of your message: I have not looked at the code your URL points at. But I think there are two possibilities: 1. Either the Fedora Net-SNMP repository is identical to the current or a previous version of the official Net-SNMP repository. 2. Or the Fedora Net-SNMP repository contains patches that are not in the upstream Net-SNMP repository.

In case (1) you should have pointed at the official Net-SNMP repository instead of the Fedora repository. Regarding (2): is the policy of Red Hat still to send patches upstream first because integrating these into a Red Hat repository (https://opensource.com/article/16/12/why-red-hat-takes-upstream-first-approach)? If so, have the people who are contributing to the Fedora Net-SNMP repository tried to submit their patches to the official Net-SNMP project?
