Bug#766977: elasticsearch not starting

[Philipp Hug]

Hi Jamie,

I suspect you did also run into the following problem, which is related:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=768178

So after having elasticsearch installed with START_DAEMON not set, systemd
still thinks that elasticsearch is running because the init script returned
0.
Running "service elasticsearch start" will have no effect because of this.
