It may sound somewhat smug, but OSGi doesn't really have the dependency hell problems addressed there. It has other annoyances, but you can run multiple versions of the same library in the same JVM without them even knowing about each other for instance. Plus, OSGi users have a full logging service pack called pax-logging (I commit there sometimes) which pulls together all the common logging APIs and redirects them to log4j 1.2, log4j 2.x, or logback, along with some additional contextual data which I find pointless honestly.
