I was about to open a PR to have each version of libdaq installed into
its own directory, which would take care of the build failure.
However, I think removing the snort3 package, then bumping the stable
snort to the latest version is the best way to go.  I would not leave
the version number as part of the package name.  If you want to keep
this status quo a little longer, tell me and I'll open the PR.
BTW, I don't use the packages, I was just going to fix the build failure.
