The problem with this approach is that it forces the choice of logging library for users that use `tools` as a library, which is inconsistent with the approach we picked for the `core` module a long while back (check git blame to see the details). That said, slf4j 2.0 moves to a different approach that seems much simpler: > SINCE 2.0.9 You can specify the provider class explicitly via the "slf4j.provider" system property. This bypasses the service loader mechanism for finding providers and may shorten SLF4J initialization. So, perhaps we can give up all these brittle build tricks and have a strong dependency on the slf4j backend we care about. The user can easily override it via a config. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
