I just want to point out that Elasticsearch has been packaged [1] in Fedora for more than 4 years.
The version I am seeing there is 1.7.5 and the version on github is 6.6.1 .. i didn't know if that was a 'dont even think about using that'
Upstream skipped a bunch of versions. They went from 1.x to 2.x to 5.x and now 6.x with 7.x in development.
I forgot the exact reason for this, but it had something to do with aligning the versions across all of Elastic's software.
