Can not start anthracite

[nindza]

When I try to start antracite it failes with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./anthracite-web.py", line 437, in
backend = Backend(config)
File "/opt/prometheus/anthracite/anthracite/backend.py", line 135, in init

return self.scan_once(s, idx=_w(s, idx).end())

I tried this on Ubuntu 14.04.5, and latest Elasticsearch 5.2.1. Could it be that I should try with some older version of Elasticsearch?

@nindza ES 5.x has lot of breaking changes. I highly doubt this code work with newer version of ES. I use it with ES 2.x and it works great.
