It used to be that you needed lein-localrepo if you wanted to put a jar in 
your local repository that wasn't a Leiningen project (if you couldn't do 
`lein install`). But these days you can do `lein deploy 
file:///home/me/.m2/repository com.somebody/mylib 0.1.0 mylib.jar 
mylib-pom.xml` to get any old jar+pom into your ~/.m2 repository.

There may be other things lein-localrepo can be used for that aren't 
covered by Leiningen, but in my experience that was the main thing people 
used it for. Perhaps if you don't have a pom and don't feel like generating 
a dummy one then it's a better fit.
