Bug#861615: RFS: polymc/1.4.1+ds-1 [ITP] -- FOSS Minecraft launcher supporting multiple instances and accounts



Control: tags 1018255 moreinfo

There is currently some drama envoling with upstream, possibly this RFS/ITP should be put on hold
until it is resolved (or maybe switched to one the forks that are currently materializing [fork])

It seems that Lenny McLennigton, the main person behind upstream went rouge in a way that is difficult
to be aligned with Debian values (and CoC), as shown by their response on [twitter].
