Passengers reported the captain announced a backup system's temperature sensor needed for icing conditions was playing up. The aircraft landed without further incident, the passengers were asked to disembark, later to embark the aircraft again after the sensor was repaired. When everybody was back on board and the aircraft was preparing for departure, an evacuation slide accidentally deployed inside the cabin causing minor injuries to a cabin crew. The passengers needed to disembark again and were taken to another aircraft.
