How to Resolve Clojure Cake Compile Error

Question

[Mea Culpa I pointed to Clojure 1.3, not Clojure 1.3.0.] I just downloaded the latest Clojure jar file, 1.3.0. I have a simple cake project, which is now throwing a missing artifact error

1 required artifact is missing.

for artifact: 
  org.apache.maven:super-pom:jar:2.0

What do I need to add to my project.clj file

(defproject repl-test "0.0.1-SNAPSHOT"
  :description "TODO: add summary of your project"
  :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.3"]
                 [org.clojure/clojure-contrib "1.2.0"]
                 [clojure-csv/clojure-csv "1.2.4"]
                 [org.clojure/tools.cli "0.1.0"]
                 [clj-http "0.1.3"]]
   :repositories {"clojure-snapshots" "http://build.clojure.org/snapshots"}
   :main repl-test)

or what do I need to build to fetch this missing artifact?

I have made sure the clojure-1.3.0.jar file is installed.

If this is a POM problem, I'm not sure what command to run to install the artifact.

btw: CakePHP is a PHP MVC web framework, it doesn't have anything to do with Clojure or the Clojure build to cake. — Paul
Also: clojure-contrib 1.2.0 may not work with clojure 1.3.0, the new contrib is modular, find more documentation here. — Paul
As an aside, when you get a long error message you don't understand (and Maven is certainly famous for this), it's better to gist it than to extract the part you think is important. In this case > 1 required artifact is missing. > > for artifact: org.apache.maven:super-pom:jar:2.0 is not at all useful, but the full error message would contain enough information to make it clear that the missing dependency was Clojure itself. For example, here's the output I get with a similar project.clj. In this output `org.clojure:c — amalloy
Turning clojure 1.3 into 1.3.0 was the problem, and the other suggestions are very helpful. — octopusgrabbus

Replace [org.clojure/clojure "1.3"] with [org.clojure/clojure "1.3.0"] then this should work.
