Is :tarball or :package the preferred installation type? #389

Hi, in general, the packages are definitely the recommended type of installation, if only because of the init scripts. |

Indeed, the packages are preferred. As I just commented on the other issue you filed, we have a 2.0.0_wip branch going that we're about to release; it's also much better tested with the packaged versions of ES. Hope this helps! |

More of the examples use :tarball for the install type, though it seems to me that packages would be preferred in a lot of situations.
