A saltstack formula to install suricata on RHEL or Ubuntu based systems.
On RHEL based systems, epel is required and will default to whichever version matches the OS platform. Suricata packages for suricata v5.0.x are part of the RHEL8 ecosystem and suricata v4.1.x is part of the RHEL7 ecosystem.
There is no such versioning weirdness with Ubuntu distros, which allow installing the latest suricata.
Supports one capture interface at the moment. Adding ability to control multiple capture interfaces is on the TODO list
