Package: snmpd
Version: 5.7.3+dfsg-5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

after upgrading to Beowulf, daemon.log gets filled with these:

Jul 14 18:31:46 31 north snmpd[27013]: error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
Jul 14 18:31:46 31 north snmpd[27013]: error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)

Jul 14 18:31:46 31 north snmpd[27013]: error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)
[...]

It is an old bug, with a known "solution" consisting in lowering the log level.

However, the Debian maintainer must have changed the original init.d/snmpd
file, since they use systemd instead, so that /etc/default/snmpd does not
get sourced. Hence the logs.

I just changed /etc/init.d/snmpd (lazy me).
