Al Bundy commented on LOG4J2-2476:
----------------------------------

[~garydgregory] For me the commit looks fine.

I've tried to replace log4j build from my forked repository and did not get any NoClassDefFoundExceptions yet.

Can I now delete the forked repo?

> I've tried to update log4j from 1.2.17 to 2.11.1.
> This seems to work for a lot of libraries but not for that ones that are configuring log4j programmatically 
> For example crystal reports seems to use log4j 1.2 and its SimpleLayout. 
> So if I try to update log4j to the latest version I get a NoClassdefFoundError. 
> ConsoleAppender seems to be missing too? 
> Could you please readd this classes to log4j-1.2-api?
