unity::scopes::internal::OnlineAccountClientImpl::flush_pending_session gets stuck and freezes UI

[Albert Astals Cid]

Today's image

I have a google account setup in system settings and i have enabled youtube in settings

When i go to the youtube scope i still see the "Log-in to youtube" button (which idellay i should not see, but that's not the problem)

When i click the button the ui freezes forever

Backtrace is http://paste.ubuntu.com/14993287/

My totally uninformed guess is that Thread 3 is stuck for some reason.

If instead of having the google account already setup i do it without a google account, i have a similar trace, just that the
unity::scopes::internal::OnlineAccountClientImpl::flush_pending_session is on thread 1 instead of thread 3

I've just confirmed that the fix for Bug #1534541 fixes this issue as well (https://code.launchpad.net/~nick-dedekind/unity8/1534541.zombie-session/+merge/284905).

Marking as duplicate.

No it is not a duplicate, I do still get the code stuck in unity::scopes::internal::OnlineAccountClientImpl::flush_pending_session when using that branch.

I just flashed my bq with a fresh image (rc-proposed 254), and reproduced this exact issue.

Then I installed unity8 from: https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-api-team/+archive/ubuntu/dev-build-1
(which is a build of: lp:~nick-dedekind/unity8/1534541.zombie-session)

I rebooted, ran through the exact same process and it didn't freeze.

Another reason of why this is not a duplicate of Bug #1534541

That bug prerequisite is that the youtube scope is not a favorite when pressing the log-in to youtube button.

I have this problem both when the youtube scope is a favorite and when it is not.

[Nick Dedekind (nick-dedekind)]

Yeah, this is definitely different. After I have added a google account, i don't get the login button. I haven't tried after rebooting with a google account already set up.
