Steps:
- install openhab2.5.1 on openhabian from bintray repo (BTW this was an upgrade from working 2.4)
- do NOT install openhab2-addons (it’s not required anyway)
upon start of openhab you will be missing a lot of jars and openhab will not work, due to (dont’ know which is correct):
- either missing jars on dl.bintray (openhab2 conf point to it)
- messed up paths on dl.bintray (you can easily see it)
- messed up .cfg files in openhab
This error was not catched as builders/developers have those jars cached probably?

I resolved it manually correcting cfg files (this was not enough) and downloading commons-collections 3.2.2 jar and puting it in proper filepath (with sha1).
