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

 

Something that might be related to this is that sometimes when I shut
down or log out, a window appears asking me to unlock my keyring. I
thought my default keyring was unlocked when I logged in, but maybe it
isn't anymore? And maybe this is why Empathy complains? Though I
wouldn't then understand why I can connect anyway.

I couldn't connect to my Gmail jabber account at all under GNOME Shell,
and when I logged out of that session and the keyring prompt appeared, I
was able to enter my password and watch Empathy connect successfully
before the system had logged me out.

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.
