Hello, The environment variable FIRST_ARG is considered as a poor interface provided by the systemd rpm macros. This was probably required because of the %service_* rpm macros were playing tricks with the shell positional parameters. This was bad practice and error prones so we would like to remove FIRST_ARG support entirely and hence it should be safe to assume that positional parameters remains unchanged after any rpm macro calls. However it seems that net-snmp uses FIRST_ARG for a different purpose... would it be possible to implement that differently so FIRST_ARG is no longer used ? Thanks
