Someone seems to have added it to setup a snmp config. It is unlikely you want an snmp config/install, its only use is for external monitoring via the network (without ssh access) and is for the most part not being used much anymore. You might do a man smartd.conf and see if there is an option to disable snmp config completely. I also disable smartd because generally it is less than useful (I have had too many "your disk is going to fail soon" notifications where the disk stopped working >3 years later--so the warning was useless, I have also had disks fail that smartd did not ever report as failed). Generally I view its reliability is so bad the tool is actually WORSE than useless since it scares you with incorrect warnings, and fails to report real (usually bad sector issues) correctly. I replace it with simply taking a report a day for each disk and when disks act up I see if the bad sectors count are rising on one of the disks.
