Merge lp:~makinacorpus/ubuntu/trusty/net-snmp/trusty into lp:ubuntu/trusty/net-snmp

packaging error: the net-snmp-create-v3-user script in recent snmp package is not present.

This patch was included in upstream debian package.

Thanks for working on this, however for this to be fixed in Trusty we will need to follow the Stable Release Update procedure. You can learn more about it at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates. Basically, you'll need to report a bug about this issue, ideally add a bug watch for the upstream debian bug, create a test case for the bug, update debian/changelog with a reference to the bug you reported in the format (LP: #1234), and that should be about it. Thanks again.

review: Needs Fixing

[kiorky (kiorky)]

There is no bug upstream O.o, this is a backport from debian package to the ubuntu 's one.
So basically, there is nothing to report upstream.

There is also no test case as simply the new command net-snmp-create-v3-user is missing (and the relevant man page) from current snmp packages.

[kiorky (kiorky)]

relevant debian bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726158

impact: make the net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user work with current ubuntu package which is totally broekn on this point

regression: i do not see at that point any potential regression as it is a new command introduction and that can cause more good than harm as for now the package is broken on the user creation front.

testcase: use sucessfully the net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user:

net-snmp-config --create-snmpv3-user $args should create a snmp user without outputting something like: /usr/bin/net-snmp-config: 236: /usr/bin/net-snmp-config: net-snmp-create-v3-user: not found

I've essentially merge the same change now and am uploading it to the trusty queue.
