> In log4j.properties, a property kafka.logs.dir is defined. However, modifying
> this property has no effect because log4j will always use the system property
> defined in kafka-run-class.sh before using the locally defined property in
> log4j.properties. Therefore, its probably less confusing to simply remove
> this property from here.
> See
> http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/PropertyConfigurator.html
> for the property search order (system property first, locally defined
> property second).
> An alternative solution: remove the system property from kafka-run-class.sh
> and keep the one here.
