The Debian installation instructions is failing at the ppa step based on this link [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/deb.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/deb.html)

[https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/6.x/apt](https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/6.x/apt)  
[https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt](https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/7.x/apt)

Both of those links return a 404

The manual installation instructions still work, but this breaks current automation.

```

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Never mind, I see the issue. It should be set to 6.x and not to 6.6.2.
