Use plugins specified in profile.clj

Question

I added some plugins to my profile.clj. When I start a new repl they are downloaded correctly to my .m2/repository directory, but I'm unable to (use '...) them, because this is throwing a FileNotFoundException. So how can I use these plugins in a default repl outside of a project?

Win 7
clojure 1.7
leiningen 2.5.3
jdk1.8.0_25

user=> (use 'hiccup.core)

FileNotFoundException Could not locate hiccup/core...

Same with fresh downloaded Incanter 1.9.0

I know that there're a couple of questions with this error, but all in the context of projects, not for a default repl. Or can I only use plugins in a project repl?

Thanks in advance!

Here my profiles.clj

{:user
    {
    :java-cmd "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.8.0_25\\bin\\java.exe"
    :plugins [
      [cider/cider-nrepl "0.8.1"]
      [incanter "1.9.0"]
      [hiccup "1.0.5"]
    ]
   }
 }

you should probably add hiccup (and incanter) to :dependencies section

{:user
    {
    :java-cmd "C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk1.8.0_25\\bin\\java.exe"
    :plugins [
      [cider/cider-nrepl "0.8.1"]
    ]
    :dependencies [
      [incanter "1.9.0"]
      [hiccup "1.0.5"]
    ]
   }
 }

also, i guess you should better add specific libraries to project.clj for every project that requires them, rather than adding them to global deps.

Use plugins specified in profile.clj
