Hi,

The problem there is that I try to load (and parse) the dependencies. RFC1213 has a dependency (import) with RFC1212 (OBJECT-TYPE FROM RFC-1212), which in turn imports from RFC1158-MIB (DisplayString FROM RFC1158-MIB). So how would I satisfy the import dependencies when not using RFC1158? Or did HP provide a wrong version of RFC1213/RFC1212 which should not have included that depencency?

The MIB modules that are bundled with libsmi solve this by uncommenting the import of DisplayString FROM RFC1158-MIB. ;-)

Since the very early MIB modules are very 'magic', I would recommend to use the ones provided by libsmi instead of any vendor provided MIB modules.
