error loading clojure layer

benswift commented 5 years ago

Description :octocat:

with latest develop branch clojure layer, I get a missing package error for clojure-cheatsheet (which is apparently now integrated into CIDER as per the README)

Reproduction guide :beetle:

add clojure layer to dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
Start Emacs

Observed behaviour: :eyes: :broken_heart:

written to *spacemacs* buffer:

Found 1 new package(s) to install...
--> installing package: clojure-cheatsheet@clojure... [1/1]
Package clojure-cheatsheet is unavailable. Is the package name misspelled?

Expected behaviour: :heart: :smile:

clojure layer (inc. cider) loads normally

This is an important fix, as currently this package tries to get installed every startup, which means the package lists are refreshed every startup, which blocks the UI. Thank you! :+1:

The workaround for this, if anyone came here to find one, is to add this to your dotspacemacs/layers function:

   ...
   dotspacemacs-configuration-layers
   '((clojure :packages (not clojure-cheatsheet))

Great, thanks - that's the workaround I had been using 🙂

Should be fixed in develop now.
