What did you expect to see?

Successful load of prom/snmp-exporter container. Reverted to provided snmp.yml from this repo for testing and it also cannot load. Tried both v0.22.0 and v0.21.0 and same issue occurs.

What did you see instead?

Setting snmp.yml back to the old format below works as expected.

[SuperQ]

Thew new format is not released yet.

[erroltuparker]

Then how come the generator has been updated on the main project to use the new format?

[nathanbent]

Is the new format not released to the Docker? Or not released in general? Trying to set snmp_exporter up and this seems to be the issue on Docker

[SuperQ]

Not released in general. The changes have been merged to main but are still pending release (#906)
