Comment 67 for bug 1029289

@Joachim: it's strange, it looks like some application is trying to authenticate with your google account by directly requesting the password. I wonder if that could be Empathy... Could you please run the command "account-console list" and then "account-console show <number>" where "<number>" is the number of the google account, and paste the result here (feel free to conceal your username, if you don't want it to be visible)?

@David: are you sure it's the google account the one asking for reauthentication? Looking at your logs, it would seem that it's facebook. Is that correct? If so, does it happen often? (it's normal that from time to time you have to reauthenticate the account, but not more once than a month -- actually, much more seldomly).
