Bug Description
After OTA-9 on BQ Aquaris E4.5 I am sometimes experiencing strange behavior of icons on the launcher, sometimes they refuse to launch the application and nothing helps except reboot, launching the application from the Apps scope works however, removing the icon from the launcher, launching from scope and then pinning the icon to the launcher does nothing, when you tap the newly added icon application does not launch, only reboot helps.
This happened with File Manager, Browser and Gallery, generally after they froze/crashed. Other applications launch normally. I checked /var/crash after Gallery froze today (then I closed it and tried to relaunch it with the icon in the launcher), but nothing inside from today, last log there is from 31.1 it seems.

Unity logs.
Any other logs I can check? Upload older crash files?

I have just discovered that Gallery now launches from the launcher, like it recovered somehow after some time.
