Ryan Skraba commented on AVRO-3304:
-----------------------------------

Just for info: the Log4j version 1.2.17 dependency is also brought in by Hadoop 
3.3.1 (the current stable version).  I'm not sure there's much point in 
removing our direct dependency while 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12956 is still open. 

It may be necessary to create an artifact of avro-tools that doesn't include 
hadoop (which is used to access remote files on filesystems like HDFS).

[~DannyBoy2k] What do you think?  Are you including avro-tool as a dependency 
in your project, or is an installed jar triggering your scanner?
