[OISF/outreachy] Issue with the Ubuntu setup

Hi,
I had my Suricata setup on a Mac and I was facing some trouble with that,
so I am trying to switch over to Ubuntu, since I recently learned that this
is the recommended way.
I am stuck at one of the steps under Rule Management with Oinkmaster where
we have to run:

sudo oinkmaster -C /etc/oinkmaster.conf -o /etc/suricata/rules

and we expect that in the new rules directory a classification.config and a
reference.config can be found.

But after I ran that command, I did find a classification.config there but
not any reference.config.
Would someone know why this must have happened?

I am unsure about how the contents of this new one differ from the contents
of reference.config under /etc/suricata, so would copying the file from
this location to /etc/suricata/rules work?


Thank you,
Riju
