Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

I'm running Natty and after this morning's update the Launcher presents no results anywhere. The first screen after opining Launcher (super key or pressing the icon) looks ok, Firefox + Stockwell + Evolution + Banshee shortcuts are there , but all others (Media Apps, Internet Apps, More Apps and Find Files) lead to empty screens, also searching for items (ex: typing firefox, chrome, whatever) produces zero results.

Ok, got it, the behavior is consistent after reboot / gdm restart , zero results using the launcher search box or pressing application group shortcuts but pressing the Application icon on the dock bar seems to fix things. After I press it, and only then, results start showing up on the main launcher window and app groups shortcuts also produce results.

Still a bug, but there's a way out of it, hope it helps.
