Right, but the disadvantage is that you're releasing something that's now incomplete on its own.
Every non-trivial Clojure program has dependencies so you’re going to be using either `clj`/`clojure` shell scripts and `deps.edn`, or else Leiningen or Boot. And if you use any of those, the clojure.jar/spec/etc issue is completely hidden (and taken care of).

Right, but the disadvantage is that you're releasing something that's now incomplete on its own. I'd've hoped that clojure wouldn't have become as tightly-coupled with spec (for instance), but maybe I just need to read the Rationale page more deeply. Dependency hell blows, especially if your work environment is disconnected from the global internet. Cheers, Payter.

There is no timeline for this work but we expect this to become more common in the future so we have no plans to change this aspect of packaging. The major benefit is that the modules can be released independently and at a faster rate than core itself. For example, newer versions of spec and the core specs libs have already been released and can be used now with Clojure 1.9. The new clj tool and its tool.deps lib exist to help you put these pieces together. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
