Dependencies of 0.57.0 vs. 0.58.0

[setumartin]

Did something change between 0.57.0 and 0.58.0 with regards to dependencies? I no longer see nrepl/nrepl:

$ clojure -Stree -Sdeps '{:deps {cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version "0.57.0"}}}'
org.clojure/clojure 1.12.3
  . org.clojure/spec.alpha 0.5.238
  . org.clojure/core.specs.alpha 0.4.74
cider/cider-nrepl 0.57.0
  . nrepl/nrepl 1.3.1
  . cider/orchard 0.36.0
  . mx.cider/logjam 0.3.0

$ clojure -Stree -Sdeps '{:deps {cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version "0.58.0"}}}'
org.clojure/clojure 1.12.3
  . org.clojure/spec.alpha 0.5.238
  . org.clojure/core.specs.alpha 0.4.74
cider/cider-nrepl 0.58.0
  . cider/orchard 0.37.1
  . mx.cider/logjam 0.3.0

Same here. Based on this change, the symptom I see is failure to start the nrepl server in the typical clojure-deps way of invoking it (documented here).

Here's 0.57.0 vs 0.58.0 behavior:

❯ clojure -Sdeps '{:deps {cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version "0.57.0"}}}' -M "-m" "nrepl.cmdline" "--middleware" "[cider.nrepl/cider-middleware]"
nREPL server started on port 41163 on host localhost - nrepl://localhost:41163
^C

❯ clojure -Sdeps '{:deps {cider/cider-nrepl {:mvn/version "0.58.0"}}}' -M "-m" "nrepl.cmdline" "--middleware" "[cider.nrepl/cider-middleware]"
Execution error (FileNotFoundException) at clojure.main/main (main.java:40).
Could not locate nrepl/cmdline__init.class, nrepl/cmdline.clj or nrepl/cmdline.cljc on classpath.

You can see, from e.g. Clojars, that 0.57.0 depends on nrepl, but 0.58.0 does not (cf. the "Dependencies" section on the right sidebar, which must be pulling from the Maven pom).

…which is just repeating what @setumartin already identified above.

See 4fbcc0c

Basically, nREPL is now a provided dep, which resulted in the difference you've observed. //cc @alexander-yakushev

Thanks @bbatsov. Understood if that's the way forward — consider this a documentation feature request, then, to indicate that from 0.58.0 users need to independently declare a dependency on nrepl. Sound reasonable?
