Debian has files of this name in packages called
libsnmp4.2-dev for stable, testing or unstable libsnmp5-dev for testing or unstable
These are the binary packages. The source package is called ucd-snmp for "4.2" and net-snmp for "5".
http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_contents is a great place to find out this sort of thing.
Yes, I have thus fathomed out a bit of the story (but no answer yet).
snmp 4.2 is that last of the line from ucd-snmp. It then became net-snmp from version 5 onwards. My requirement is for at least version 5.1.2 (I think it's that, 5.x.x anyway) so the 4.2 versions are no use to me.
Now why libsnmp.so disappears between 4.2 and 5.x is what I need to find out.
