How to transition YAML config to 3.0.0-beta1?

[Desoroxxx]

Since the version 3.0.0-beta1 removed the log4j-layout-jackson-yaml module, my configuration file does not work, that is somewhat expected.

But I am not quite sure of what should I do to transition to 3.0.0-beta1, what should I do?

@Desoroxxx, YAML configuration (e.g., log4j2.yaml) and YAML layout (i.e., printing log messages in YAML format) are two different things. We have removed the latter, the former should still work, if you have com.fasterxml.jackson.dataformat:jackson-dataformat-yaml in your classpath. Could you check this, please?

For the next beta I submitted #2142, which should simplify adding all the necessary dependencies to use YAML config files.
After the change, users will just have to add log4j-config-yaml to their runtime dependencies.
