[Bug 1454210] [NEW] accounts are lost each time the app is ran on the device

 

Public bug reported:

In vivid, whenever I run an app containing an Online Accounts plugin on
the device, all my accounts are destroyed. This makes working with
online Accounts extremely cumbersome as one needs to re-enter account
credentials on every run.

This does not happen if I install an already installed package manually
with pkcon. However, it does happen too if I uninstall the previously
installed package and then install it again.

This can be reproduced by branching lp:reminders-app, and running it on
the phone using QtCreator. When being asked for setting up an Evernote
account, say yes, set it up and then close the app. Restart it from
QtCreator and the account will be gone.

IMPORTANT: There is a setting in the SDK which says "Uninstall
application after it finished". Besides that this setting will always
destroy online accounts (which IMO it should not) current situation will
also destroy accounts if this setting is NOT checked!
