Cheops (http://marko.marko.net/cheops/) is no longer maintained and 
might need some changes to make it compile with newer libraries 
(ucd-snmp related mostly) or to compile with newer gcc versions. I've 
been fixing some of these bugs in the Debian version (patches and all 
available at http://packages.debian.org/unstable/net/cheops). Its 
functionality now is also very limited (uses 'queso' for OS detection 
for example)

Cheops-ng, however, is being maintained, uses nmap for OS detection 
and should be, overall, much better than Cheops. For more info see 
http://cheops-ng.sourceforge.net/ and 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cheops-ng/
