You need to use the name of the package in the recipe, not the "debian"
name the debian renaming code came up with.

Looking at the recipe it does:

PACKAGES += "${PN}-libs ${PN}-mibs ${PN}-server ${PN}-client ${PN}-
server-snmpd ${PN}-server-snmptrapd"

so net-snmp-libs should work in IMAGE_INSTALL.

You'd need to split up the packaging into more granular packages.
