Robert Kanter commented on OOZIE-1287:
--------------------------------------

I'm not an expert on how slf4j or log4j work, but in OOZIE-1004, Alejandro 
posted this comment:

excluding the slf4j binding for log4j and log4j JARs.
Including slf4j api and the simple binding JARs.
slf4j does not allow you to have 2 bindings in the classpath, only one. Using 
the simple one, thus no need for log4j JAR either.

So, it sounds like he deliberately meant to leave out log4j.  Though if slf4j 
is "complaining and [not?] really outputting anything", then perhaps that's not 
correct and it should be fixed.

> With Hadoop 2.0.4-alpha it is now now a requirement to have slf4j available 
> for the oozie client to run (because of the hadoop-auth requiring it).
> I think it would not be a problem to include it even before Oozie migrates to 
> Hadoop 2.0.4-alpha.
> Please let me know if I can submit a patch
