Description
Please add the ability to mark the ELK install packages as "on hold" in the packet manager during the installation process.
It would be very useful to have the packages on hold (e.g. apt-mark hold elasticsearch) so you don´t have to take care about the packages when installing updates on the host system.
At the moment it could happen that you´re accidentally updating a ELK component during a "normal" update install on the host system.
