[Bug 840875] Re: Empathy sends a notification "Password required" without any supplementary info

 

I think there are two issues here: First, the message isn’t very useful
without the action hint or additional information in the case actions
are not available.

But second, why is the notification sent at all? It seems that no
password is actually required, since the accounts do connect properly.

Title:
  Empathy sends a notification "Password required" without any
  supplementary info

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Empaty has automatically re-imported my account from Natty
  (gmail/jabber).

  At startup, it now always displays a notification "xxxx@xxxxxxxxxx
  Password required" (idem for gmail).

  It connects however successfully to my accounts.

  The notification should either be removed or give more details: which
  password is required, where, etc.
