That is a fork though; i.e. WildFly itself does not ship log4j:log4j.
A number of our testsuite modules do declare log4j:log4j as a test
dependency, but AIUI org.jboss.logmanager:log4j-jboss-logmanager is API
compatible so is it possible to instead have the testsuite depend on the
fork and eliminate this dependency?
Yes the org.jboss.logmanager:log4j-jboss-logmanager can be used as a
replacement of log4j. The only requirement is that the
org.jboss.logmanager:jboss-logmanager also be on the class path. That is
what we use with the shipped zips. We do not ship an Apache log4j library.
