`Artifacts could not be resolved` error for simple named dependencies
Problem Description
I am trying to convert an existing project from leinigen to boot. I am getting a lot of "The following artifacts could not be resolved" errors for the build task. Here is the output:
The following artifacts could not be resolved: boot.user:aleph:jar:0.4.4, boot.user:bidi:jar:2.1.3, boot.user:camel-snake-kebab:jar:0.4.0, boot.user:cheshire:jar:5.8.0, boot.user:clj-http:jar:3.8.0, boot.user:clj-time:jar:0.14.2, boot.user:cljs-http:jar:0.1.44, boot.user:clojure-humanize:jar:0.2.2, boot.user:clojure-ini:jar:0.0.2, boot.user:compojure:jar:1.6.0, boot.user:environ:jar:1.1.0, boot.user:fipp:jar:0.6.12, boot.user:hiccup:jar:1.0.5, boot.user:hickory:jar:0.7.1, boot.user:honeysql:jar:0.9.2, boot.user:joda-time:jar:2.9.9, boot.user:markdown-clj:jar:1.0.2, boot.user:pg-types:jar:2.3.0, boot.user:reagent:jar:0.7.0, boot.user:reagent-utils:jar:0.3.1, boot.user:ring:jar:1.6.3, boot.user:ring-middleware-accept:jar:2.0.3, boot.user:ring-server:jar:0.5.0, boot.user:secretary:jar:1.2.3, boot.user:selmer:jar:1.11.7, boot.user:viz-cljc:jar:0.1.3: Could not find artifact boot.user:aleph:jar:0.4.4 in clojars (https://repo.clojars.org/
The common property of all this dependencies is that that their name (and namespace ?) is a single word and not several separted with .. I could reproduce this by changing https://github.com/adzerk-oss/boot-uberjar-example a bit by including one of my own single word dependencies https://clojars.org/logbug . I then changed this dependency (only locally) by changing the library name from logbug to drtom.logbug and also the internal namespace in the same way. This fixed indeed the problem and boot build went through.
Steps to reproduce
see above
Platform details
Platform (macOS, Linux, Windows): macOS
JRE/JDK version (java -version): 9.0.1
Boot details
Boot version (2.7.1):
build.boot present? (yes/no): yes
~/.boot/profile present? (yes/no):yes
Task name? (if applicable):
@DrTom It looks like you prefixed the dependency list with ` instead of '.
Clojure's behavior in the case of ` is to attach the current namespace to every simple symbol inside.
Try using ', I'm sure that will fix your issue.
