Using this config tends to just print the last path of the category

log4j.appender.out.layout.ConversionPattern=[%30.30t] %-30.30c{1} %-5p %m%n

For more information see
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/PatternLayout.html

i.e. use %c{x} where x is the number of right hand paths to print, so
%c{1} just prints the last one
