Not Moritz here, but maybe we can argue that way: It could be handled
like clamav (and be updated to upstream point updates via
stretch-updates), or possibly suricata should not be at all in a
stable release beeing to fast moving target[*].

 [*] it might get an excpetion of beeing maintained in backports even
 though it would not be in testing, like done for linux-grsec).

Thoughs?
