Details

Problem

The pulsar-client-all:2.11.0 dependency transitively includes Log4j2 (see here) rather than just the SLF4J api and logging bridge.
Whereas the pulsar-client-all:2.10.3 does NOT bring a logging impl in (see here).

Symptoms

If the consuming app is already using a logger impl then a conflict can occur at startup (when using SLF4J) telling user to pick one or the other.

If the consuming application is not already using a logger impl then pulsar-client-all effectively chooses LOG4J2 for the app.

What did you expect to see?

Adding the dependency org.apache.pulsar:pulsar-client-all:2.11.0 should NOT transitively bring in the log4j2 implementation.

What did you see instead?

Adding the dependency org.apache.pulsar:pulsar-client-all:2.11.0 transitively DID bring in the log4j2 implementation.

Anything else?
