Yus, this worked for me! Thanks!
I did that (without the final ")" , then went back to the suricata folder
and proceeded with the rest of the steps, and managed to run
sudo make install-full

without errors.

When I finally tried to run suricata-update after that, I got an error

<Error> -- [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_FATAL(171)] - failed to open file:
/usr/local/etc/suricata/suricata.yaml: Permission denied

which I solved mimicking one of the steps in this link
https://suricata-update.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart.html#install-suricata-update,
with

 sudo chmod g+r suricata.yaml

And now I'm able to run suricata-update without further errors.

Sharing this here in case anyone else runs into similar issues ^^
