The word "snmpstatic" in the filenames above means that those binaries have been statically linked with the Net-Snmp package. To use the dynamic Net-Snmp library, you should get Net-Snmp from it's homepage at http://www.net-snmp.org and install it. Read through the net-snmp documentation, configure, compile and install the net-snmp shared library using the -enable-shared configure option.

The default for net-snmp is to only create a static library. When you have compiled the snmp shared library, you can then download and use the tacppd package without the "snmpstatic" word.
