There's a hardwired default list of MIB directories
(let's say it's "/usr/local/share/snmp/mibs:$HOME/.snmp/mibs")
If you set
MIBDIRS=/tmp/mibs
then you're saying
"forget about the default list, and *only* look here"
MIB files in /tmp/mibs will be available.
Those in /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs or ~/.snmp/mibs won't.
If you set
MIBDIRS=+/tmp/mibs
then you're saying
"look here *and* in the default locations"
MIB files in /tmp/mibs, /usr/local/share/snmp/mibs
and ~/.snmp/mibs will all be available.

But the default list isn't found in MIBDIRS.
It's hardcoded into the SNMP library.
MIBDIRS can be used to add to (or replace) this hardcoded list.
Try it.
