MGA8-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50 in Dutch
No installation issues.
Trying to repeat the test the Brian did in bug 29766 Comment 24:
loaded the z-file, extracted and put the folder in my home, then

$ cd log4j_t1/bin/
$ java -cp .:/usr/share/java/log4j/log4j-core.jar:/usr/share/java/log4j/log4j-api.jar log4j_t1.Test1L
15:03:25.262 [main] ERROR HelloWorld - Hello, World!

Seems OK.
