:type :pom seems to be broken (2.0-preview2)

[benkard]

sample.project.clj contains the following dependency:

[net.sf.ehcache/ehcache "2.3.1" :type "pom"]

With this dependency, lein2 deps fails (where lein2 is Leiningen 2.0-preview2):

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: org.sonatype.aether.resolution.DependencyResolutionException: Could not find artifact net.sf.ehcache:ehcache:jar:2.3.1 in central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2)

lein precate simply drops the :type "pom" part, but this does not seem to change the behavior of Leiningen 2.0-preview2 in any way.

(Note that I am not sufficiently familiar with Maven to know what :type "pom" means, but I seem to need it in order to successfully depend on the openid4java library.)

Looks like pomegranate uses :extension "pom" instead of :type "pom" as that is what it was called in the aether docs. However, using that causes an exception:

Self-reminder about what to fix:

1. Fix exception / make sure :extension "pom" works
2. Keep pom file off the classpath (?)
3. Make issue or fix pom generation for dependencies with :extension
4. Make issue for or fix lein-precate to change the key
5. Update sample.project.clj

lein-precate issue at technomancy/lein-precate#3

[xeqi]

:extension "pom" now works in master, and lein-precate 0.3.0 will keep dependency options and convert :type to :extension.
