How can I find out the Lucene library version for a given Elastic Search  
release?  
In particular, how can I find out the Lucene version for the lastest  
release (_0.19.8_[http://www.elasticsearch.org/download/2012/07/02/0.19.8.html](http://www.elasticsearch.org/download/2012/07/02/0.19.8.html)  
)?

Thanks a lot,  
Jeyendran

when you download the release and unpack it the lucene jars are in the /lib  
folder.

-\> lucene-core-3.6.0.jar -\> lucene 3.6

For the latest release, you can just look at the pom.xml file:
