[Bug 1413655] Re: --switch removes accounts

 

I've tried to reproduce this bug, with devel-proposed being at image 78. On rtm-proposed, I created a Twitter account and an U1 account, then I installed podbird from the store and added a couple of podcasts.
After the switch, podbird is still installed, and its podcasts are there; the Twitter account is still there, but the U1 account has been removed. Unfortunately I cannot tell if it was removed after the switch, or if it had been removed even before. But for sure, I didn't remove it myself.
The accounts DB doesn't seem corrupt, and I could create an U1 account after the switch. So, it looks like the U1 account was removed in a clean way, but we don't know why. I'm adding ubuntuone-credentials to this bug, for investigation.
