I'm running Nagios 2.9 on Debian etch; this is a list of the snmp 
related packages that are installed on the system

-snmp
-snmpd
-libsnmp-session-perl
-libsnmp-perl
-libsnmp-base
-libsnmp9
-libsnmp5
-libsnmp4.2
-libsnmp4.2-dev
-libnet-snmp-perl

I must admit that this system was upgraded from sarge to etch using 
'apt-get dist-upgrade', but I already installed various Nagios servers 
on Debian Sarge and Etch and never had any problems of that kind.
I looked up my own docs and these are my prerequisites for compiling 
snmp-plugins :
-libnetsnmp-perl
-libsnmp4.2 (or higher)
-libsnmp4.2-dev (or higher)
-snmpget
Hope this helps,

Frederik
