The package still refers a lot to /opt/elasticsearch, and makes it hard to use ...

Thanks @ipaqmaster. I've added the patch.

The below diff seems to do the trick but this package has other problems. Everything keeps referring to /opt/elasticsearch including /opt/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-keystore create but the service itself runs pointing to /etc/elasticsearch. May be a good idea for this package to take some of the config from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/elasticsearch to help streamline the installation.

Same issue as sohlk.

start elasticsearch.service after install failed, seems like permission issue.

❯ systemctl start elasticsearch.service

❯ systemctl status elasticsearch.service
