Suricata

I have updated the daily build repos which result in a package version convention like so:

dpkg -l |grep suricata
ii  suricata                                      201611281852+4d8e9ae~ubuntu16.04.1            amd64        Suricata open source multi-thread IDS/IPS/NSM system.

where "4d8e9ae" is the commit used to build Suricata from.

The very same set up under Debian results in "suricata -V" responding with the first 7 characters of the commit used for the pkg build (intended behavior) but it does not seem to work under PPA the same way.

I think this approach should be sufficient for pinpointing the git revision.
