The Net::SNMP perl module from CPAN should install in
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.x.x/Net/

not in "i386-linux-thread"

It is an all perl module not an xs module like SNMP.pm from the Net-SNMP 
project (net-snmp.sf.net)


can you run "perldoc Net::SNMP" - if not Net::SNMP is not installed
can you run "perldoc SNMP"  - if so - you chave installed Net-SNMP's perl 
module.

try the following to verify installation:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Net::SNMP'
