Since upgrading from Ubuntu 17.04 to Ubuntu 17.10 I have issues with launcher icons for java programs.
For instance I use JPasswords password manager and have a .desktop file for it in /usr/share/applications/ and this file has specified also an icon. In Ubuntu 17.10 this desktop file still works, I can see the icon in the launcher and among all applications when click on Show Applications, but in case I launch it, it will create another icon with an icon taken from the jar file and I am not able to add it among favorites (make it permanent on the launcher). Further issue is the newly created icon has user non-friendly name displayed when cursor is hovered over it - for instance my JPasswords has name "org-jpws-front-PwsafeJ". Very same problem has also Oracle SQLDeveloper, so I assume any java app could be affected.
Is there some fix or workaround for this?
Example of the issue can be seen on this screenshot:
