Solr 4 packaged with logging libraries

The Solr 4 web archive (war) does not ship with logging libraries any more. So everyone who want to deploy it into a container have to either include the logging libraries in the classpath of the container or repackage the solr with the logging libraries.

I assume there are hundreds of repackaged solr 4 packages around the world. I discovered an approach on github of https://github.com/finn-no, but they are including some custom libraries in the package as well, so it is not usable by others.

I forked this repository and created a generic version of a repackaged solr, available on bintray.

You can either download it directly or include it in your build.gradle.

repositories {
    maven {
        url  "http://dl.bintray.com/paulwellnerbou/maven" 
    }
}

There is more documentation for other ways to access this repository (maven, cURL, Artifactory and Nexus mirrors) on bintray's repository site and in the README.md of the github repository.
