Unit zerotier-one.service could not be found.

This issue only happened when compilling ZeroTier from source. Using the .deb file worked normally for Linux Mint 21.3 and 22.

However, the installation script for the .deb file is incorrectly set up not to detect .Y versions (i.e. it detects Linux Mint 21 but not 21.3). This required me to edit a certain file in my computer, which now I have forgot exactly which one, to read my Version ID as 21 rather than 21.3 to be able to run the script. I was able to edit it back to 21.3 after I ran the installation script and ZeroTier worked normally.
