Hi,

I downloaded the river couchdb source code from [https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-river-couchdb](https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-river-couchdb) under my local elasticsearch directory with name elasticsearch-river-couchdb. Hierarchy is  
elasticsearch/elasticsearch-river-couchdb.

I tried mvn package -DskipTests under elasticsearch-river-couchdb and getting the below error  
[WARNING] The POM for org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch:jar:0.18.5 is missing, no dependency information available

Any help on telling me how to build river-couchdb will really be appreciated.

Thanks

Got the problem solved. I just need to change the pom.xml under river-couchdb directory from  
0.18.5 to 0.19.0-SNAPSHOT. That did the magic.
