Possible Startup loop

[miloit]

In the openhabian repository is a discussion about a possible Startup loop

openhab/openhabian#1870

I am not affected but I just want to bring up this topic .

Please add some details like logging, reproduction scenario etc.

So far I've only seen it happen on Raspberries, and after upgrading the openhab package.
It doesn't happen on every update, and there's no special action identifiable that would trigger this.
Karaf cache deletion sometimes helps (according to @BClark09 cache is cleared on every update anyway).

I assume all OH devs are using some "instant fast" x86 hardware and not some slowish old ARM Raspberry.
Full startup (until all bundle states are finally 'active') takes several minutes on the latter.
So we run into timing related effects there you never get to see on any developer's boxes.

Will try to post an openhab.log plus Karaf bundle states once I manage to catch another instance of the issue occurring.
