The function "clojure-indent-function" is defined in clojure-mode.el
but clojure-mode.el is only loaded when a Clojure source file is
opened. Therefore, if for example you opened a Clojure source file and
then started the slime repl, you would not have the problem. However,
you don't want to always open a Clojure source file before you start a
repl, so to fix this, make certain that clojure-mode.el is started
before you start the repl. This can be done in a number of ways -
adding the following to your .emacs startup code is probably the
easiest:
(add-hook 'slime-connected-hook (lambda ()
(require 'clojure-mode)))
