Hi David, Clojure 1.9 now depends on two external dependencies (spec.alpha and core.specs.alpha) so the instructions listed there will no longer work. We are evaluating whether and how to update those instructions in the readme right now.
Most Clojure users work with Clojure through a project manager like Leiningen or Boot (where simply declaring a dependency on org.clojure/clojure "1.9.0-RC1" will automatically pull in its new dependencies). We also have a new command line tool, `clj` that you can use to start a repl with 1.9 (see https://clojure.org/guides/deps_and_cli).
