Description
I tried upgrading our project from 0.7.0-alpha1 to 0.7.0-rc1. It won't start unless I introduce the new dependencies on brotli4j, etc.
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Extract this zip archive and change into
minimal/ - Run
clojure -M:nrepl. Here's what I get:
Execution error (ClassNotFoundException) at jdk.internal.loader.BuiltinClassLoader/loadClass (BuiltinClassLoader.java:641).
com.aayushatharva.brotli4j.encoder.Encoder$Parameters

/tmp/clojure-2841063393891295391.edn
I'm running java 21, but I get the same results on java 17.

Research direction
Extract minimal.zip, change into minimal/, and run clojure -M:nrepl on Java 17 or 21 to reproduce the missing brotli4j class. Trace how the 0.7.0-rc1 dependencies are declared and loaded; done means the minimal project starts without manually adding brotli4j or related dependencies.
