You might want to check and see if the 'p5-SNMP-Util-1.8.1' port is
installed {/usr/ports/net-mgmt/p5-SNMP-Util}. If not, try installing it
yourself and see if the problem goes away.

If you have 'portmanager' installed, you could try:

	portmanager net-mgmt/p5-SNMP-Util -l -p -y

Check the '/var/log/portmanager.log' to see what transpired.
