Package: snmptrapd
Version: 5.9+dfsg-4+deb11u1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
The file /lib/systemd/system/snmptrapd.service ends up with line
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmptrapd -LOw -f -p /run/snmptrapd.pid
whereas I guess that should instead be
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmptrapd -Lsd -f
with option "right" for syslog, and no need for PID file since systemd
uses its own MAINPID anyway.
I guess this was needed ever since version 5.9, I just failed to report
it earlier.
Thanks, Paul

OK so the logs are currently "Ow" which means:
log to stdout but only from warning and higher which means warning messages are captured by the systemd logger.
Instead use "sd" which means use syslog at a level of debugging and higher. That's not a really good outcome. I'm not sure why you would want that.
Also the default options are "-LOw -f udp:162 udp6:162" so the pid got removed a while ago.
