Leiningen is missing its dependencies. (On Windows)

I'm trying to install Leiningen on Windows 7. Here is my steps:

Step 1. Download:

cd C:\application_bin\

git clone [email protected]:technomancy/leiningen.git

Step 2. Add C:\application_bin\leiningen\bin to system path.

Step 3. Run:

PS C:\Users\Nick> lein repl                                                  

Leiningen is missing its dependencies.                                  
Please run "lein bootstrap" in the leiningen-core/ directory            
with a stable release of Leiningen. See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.

I don't know what is missing, so I follow the instruction from this error message:

cd C:\application_bin\leiningen\leiningen-core

lein bootstrap

Leiningen is missing its dependencies.                                  
Please run "lein bootstrap" in the leiningen-core/ directory            
with a stable release of Leiningen. See CONTRIBUTING.md for details.

The error comes back again. What's wrong with my installation steps? What dependencies are missing?

I've found the solution here:

http://onoffswitch.net/installing-leinigen-windows/

The problem is caused by a maual wget installation on Windows. The lein.bat checks wheter wget, curl exist, and whether in powershell (in which case it creates a .net webclient and downloads the target file).

Solution:

  1. Remove wget. or
  2. Change the order of the powershell, wget section in lein.bat. (details in the aforementioned link.)
