I tried many things again, here it goes:

- when I logged in my session I saw that bluetooth-applet was launched
(even though obex-data-server was not launched, because it has
automatically been removed from the system with the last update) but I
couldn't activate bluetooth with Fn+F5, only through terminal with
'echo enable > /proc/acpi/ibm/bluetooth' as root. Bluetooth applet
doesn't appeared in the system tray as it used to, however (it's set
up that way on my laptop, to only show up when bluetooth is enabled).

- I killed bluetooth-applet and tried to re-run it and got the error
"Bluetooth OBEX server failed: The name org.openobex was not provided
by any .service files".
So I reinstalled obex-data-server and re-run bluetooth-applet again,
and this time it was "Bluetooth OBEX server failed: Bluez DBus
interface not available".
Running it as root I got an error too:
"Can't get session bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus
security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the
network connection was broken".
To sum it up I am unable to launch bluetooth-applet by hand, neither
as root, nor as user, perhaps because bluez-gnome needs to be updated
to match bluetooth-4.40.
The program is however automatically launched if I log in (even with
obex-data-server uninstalled, I tried it again).

Hope it was clear and helpful,
Cheers.
