I'm pleased to announce the latest version of clojure.math.combinatorics.
https://github.com/clojure/math.combinatorics

clojure.math.combinatorics is a library of functions to generate
permutations, subsets, combinations, cartesian products, and selections of
collections.

NEW TO 0.0.6 -- partitions

Alex Engelberg has contributed a new `partitions` function.

=> (pprint (partitions [1 2 3 4]))
(([1 2 3 4])
 ([1 2 3] [4])
 ([1 2 4] [3])
 ([1 2] [3 4])
 ([1 2] [3] [4])
 ([1 3 4] [2])
 ([1 3] [2 4])
 ([1 3] [2] [4])
 ([1 4] [2 3])
 ([1] [2 3 4])
 ([1] [2 3] [4])
 ([1 4] [2] [3])
 ([1] [2 4] [3])
 ([1] [2] [3 4])
 ([1] [2] [3] [4]))

There are a few other Clojure implementations of `partitions` bouncing
around the net.  This implementation is significantly more advanced,
boasting the following features:

1. Uses a sophisticated iterative algorithm, faster than the standard
recursive approach.
2. Special support for collections with duplicate items.
3. Support for efficiently generating partitions restricted to some minimum
and/or maximum number of sets in the partition.

Enjoy!

P.S.  A lot of people don't realize it, but the existing `permutations`
function also has special handling for efficiently processing collections
with duplicate items.  For example:
=> (permutations [1 1 2 2])
([1 1 2 2] [1 2 1 2] [1 2 2 1] [2 1 1 2] [2 1 2 1] [2 2 1 1])
