I'm trying to get MRTG set up on Ubuntu 14.04 and cannot get snmpd to install correctly. Every time I try to install I get this error

/usr/sbin/snmpd: error while loading shared libraries: libnetsnmpagent.so.30: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
invoke-rc.d: initscript snmpd, action "start" failed.
dpkg: error processing package snmpd (--configure):
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 127
Processing triggers for ureadahead (0.100.0-16) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
snmpd
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

I've tried numerous possible fixes for this and have not found anything that works. Any help is greatly appreciated.

A quick search online suggests that the following may work for you

I tried what you said and it returned that there was no such file or directory. So I went and checked the /usr/local/lib directory and found nothing there?? It's perl, python2.7, python3.4 and site_ruby is there some way I can add/install the libraries for snmpd into this Dir?

Solved it by using purge to remove snmp snmpd then going into synaptic package manager and marking the packages to be reinstalled. Then install snmp snmpd and works perfectly!!

Good job. Well done!
