[BUG]: Installing DevOpsAgent on SLES 15 fails

[SebastianRoether]

What happened?

Installation fails because installdependencies.sh tries to install openssl 1.0.0 which is not supported for SLES 15. Most likely because the code here

# we might on OpenSUSE
OSTYPE=$(grep ^ID_LIKE $filepath | cut -f2 -d=)
if [ -z $OSTYPE ]
then
    OSTYPE=$(grep ^ID $filepath | cut -f2 -d=)
fi
echo $OSTYPE

# is_sles=1 if it is a SLES OS
[ -n $OSTYPE ] && ([ $OSTYPE == '"sles"' ] || [ $OSTYPE == '"sles_sap"' ]) && is_sles=1

was written for SLES 12, but SLES 15 apparently added ID_LIKE (12.3 vs 15.0), so for SLES 15, this never sets is_sles=1

And then this does not work for SLES 15

if [[ -n $is_sles ]]
then
    zypper -n install lttng-ust libopenssl1_1 krb5 zlib libicu
else
    zypper -n install lttng-ust libopenssl1_0_0 krb5 zlib libicu
fi
