For future reference, when upgrading libopennms-java, it checks to see if you're upgrading from a version <= 1.3.11-1 ... if you are, and /usr/share/opennms/lib is not a symlink already, it explicitly runs:
mkdir -p /usr/share/java/opennms/
mv /usr/share/opennms/lib/* /usr/share/java/opennms/
rm -rf /usr/share/opennms/lib/
ln -s /usr/share/java/opennms/ /usr/share/opennms/lib

It sounds like it didn't run these commands for you (I'm not sure exactly why ... I thought I had tested all the bizarre upgrade scenarios, but maybe I must have missed something subtle), but if you run these commands by hand, it should fix it.
