According to the recipe it seems that no conf files are provided for snmp.
snmp seems to be the client and maybe doesn't need snmp.conf.

I suppose that snmp is the client so you don't have a service to start the client.
Just use it in a command line.
try :
	# find / -name *snmp*

This command will locate all files containing snmp and will show you if snmp binaries are installed
or not.
