DESCRIPTION
    This module handles downloading ElasticSearch from github, building, and
    installing it.

    It then writes a config file to remember where it was installed.

    It also adds a script called "install_elasticsearch.pl" into your perl
    bin directory, which can be called as follows:

        install_elasticsearch.pl              # upgrade existing installation
        install_elasticsearch.pl --dir /path  # install to /path

    To see all available options, try:

        install_elasticsearch.pl --help

REQUIREMENTS
    * Java version 6 or above
