As Cabal tells, the developer files are needed, too, and are usually found in packages ending on '-dev' or '-devel', that is, in your case net-snmp-dev.
Ports is build-from-source, so every package is what Linux calls a -dev package. The OP might need to make sure that cabal knows to look in /usr/local for libraries. -- brandon s allbery allbery.b@gmail.com wandering unix systems administrator (available) (412) 475-9364 vm/sms
