+# Meteor has switched to a different installation approach;
+# instead of installing to the system they now install to
+# the user and their code heavily depends on that. Users
+# that want to continue to use Meteor can use the
+# `curl https://install.meteor.com | /bin/sh` approach as
+# suggested in their documentation, which now installs to
+# ~/.meteor instead of /usr/local/meteor or /opt/meteor.
+# They also heavily depend on specific versions of bundled
+# binaries, which we really can't keep supporting.
+# Removal in 30 days.
