Hi,

some remarks on Logstash APT repository and package:

1. Logstash package version numbering is loused up:

Hence the newest package version is 1.5.0.rc2-1, not 1.5.0-rc3-1

1. It seems reasonable to replace the command line interpreters of  
some scripts in folder /opt/logstash/vendor/bundle/jruby/1.9/bin/:

with best regards,  
Uve

This is a bug in how we named the RC3 package. It will be fixed in future releases.

For now, if you need to upgrade to RC3, you'll have to be explicit: `apt-get install logstash=1.5.0-rc3`
