Description:
When trying to install snort 2.8.2.1-8 via pacman, it ends up in error saying that var/log/snort/alert does not exist.

---
/tmp/alpm_B2G8ys/.INSTALL: line 6: var/log/snort/alert: No such file or directory
error: scriptlet failed to execute correctly
---
However, the binary seems to be installed, but it's unclear if the installation actually went well or if something is broken.

Additional info:
* package version(s): snort-2.8.2.1-8
* config and/or log files etc.: None


Steps to reproduce:
# pacman -Sy snort
