BTW, any idea on how to solve the issue about choosing a default interface name?

The suricata config file points to a NIC and our current config file
points by default to 'eth0',
but many systems may not have it available.

If we try to start suricata pointing to a non-existent interface this will fail.
If we auto-start suricata after installing it with aptitude and it
fails, the package may be considered installed failed.

We could probably enable (but don't auto-start) the service at package
install time.
