The current ebuilds for elasticseach, logstash and kibana download the *oss* package of the Elastic stack. With 6.3 x-pack is included in the Elastic stack packaging, i.e., it cannot be installed separately (x-pack 6.2.4 is the latest available download https://www.elastic.co/de/downloads/x-pack). The oss packages do not include the x-pack plugin. This makes it impossible to upgrade an existing deployment which has x-pack running. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install elasticsearch, kibana or logstash 2. 3. Actual Results: x-pack missing Expected Results: x-pack included
Thanks for the feedback, I was thinking about adding the xpacked version, but since the unlicensed version doesn't add much value I only added the OSS version. I think a use flag xpack would be ok, what do you think? So by default users will use the OSS version and if you want, you can use the xpacked one.
There are some free features which can be of interest for other users as well which only come with the non-oss version (https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions), e.g., monitoring, index management, search profiler, grok debugger, ... If a user opts not to use any of this (free) features or decides to go for additional (paid) features the package including x-pack can be used in any case.
Except it's a slightly bigger package and comes with a a different license. And a higher codebase means more (security) bugs.
