Statement of Impact: The net-snmp version that we are running hardcodes
the /etc/sensors.conf in the source code. However on ubuntu this file is
/etc/sensors3.conf. Users wanting to use lmsensors and net-snmp have to
create a symlink for /etc/sensors.conf.

How this bug has been addresses: This bug has been fixed in karmic by
adding the attached patch to change it to /etc/sensors3.conf.

How to Reproduce:

1. Install and configure lmsensors.
2. Install and configure net-snmp.
3. Run the following command: snmpwalk localhost lmSensors

You should get the following output:

  LM-SENSORS-MIB::lmSensors = No Such Object available on this agent at
this OID

Impact: There should be no impact.
