        Strange, just for kicks, I tried a second time to run the install: now it worked.
        I leave these posts, just in case this points towards some issue with the installer, otherwise, I'd just nuke my previous post.

          There was a bug-fix update to Suricata just some hours ago. That fixed an installation issue for first-time installs of Suricata. Maybe you got the previous version, then next the new version that works.

          As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."
