Bug#988312: libslf4j-java: misses liblog4j1.2-java as a dependency

[Pierre Gruet]

Package: libslf4j-java
Version: 1.7.30-1
Severity: important

Dear maintainer,

Version 1.7.30-1 of libslf4j does not declare liblog4j1.2-java as a dependency,
it is only declared within the "Suggests:" field in debian/control.

Yet the classes of liblog4j1.2-java are needed by many classes in
slf4j-migrator.jar, slf4j-log4j12.jar, log4j-over-slf4j.jar. log4j:log4j is
also a declared dependency with scope runtime in slf4j-log4j12/pom.xml.
For this reason, other projects depending on the artifact slf4j-log4j12 fail to
resolve log4j:log4j:1.2.x.

Thanks for your help,
Pierre Gruet
