[Bug 1496581] [NEW] GOA configured Google calendar not using OAuth2

 

Public bug reported:

I'm hitting this issue on my Ubuntu 15.04 installation regularly!

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=728496

Its symptom is to present a non-descript modal input box requesting a
password for my e-mail without any description as to why, or who is
asking for it.

More distinctly, you can enter either an incorrect or correct password,
and it will respond with "invalid password"

This leaves the user feeling quite dismayed, and concerned as to what is
being authenticated with my credentials.

The gnome bugzilla suggests that the issue has been resolved, and so
this simply needs a version bump - or a backport.
