That's how we do it in our Catalyst apps:

In the Catalyst app class:

=item finalize_config

Initializes the logger after the config file merging and loading is done.

=cut

sub finalize_config {
    my $class = shift;
    $class->next::method(@_);
    $class->log(Log::Log4perl::Catalyst->new($class->config->{log}));
}

That way we can configure the logging in the Catalyst config file(s) loaded
by Plugin::ConfigLoader with merging and not have a separate one just for
logging.

Best regards, Alex
