That's right, mrtg uses perl-snmp but you can create custom scripts
which are used to generate statistics for other values than traffic.
For these scripts many people (including myself) use snmpwalk/snmpget
in shell scripts.

I don't want a solution for this snmp problem but for a debian problem
which this actually is. How can we find a way for debian to produce a
changelog for user-visible changes like that?
That's the solution I want. I just don't want that to happen again in
snmp or any other package.
