Can I evaluate this integral:
$$ \int_0^1\frac{\log(x)}{x-1}dx $$
without knowing the value of $\zeta(2)$? In particular can I use methods of complex analysis?

$\begin{align} \int_0^1 \frac{\ln x}{x-1}\,dx&=\Big[\ln(1-x)\ln x\Big]_0^1-\int_0^1 \frac{\ln(1-x)}{x}\,dx\\ &=-\int_0^1 \frac{\ln(1-x)}{x}\,dx\end{align}$
