Comment 16 for bug 1004515

I have a similar problem as described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/accountsservice/+bug/1067414

I can confirm that the solution is to upgrade the accountservice packages.

In my ppa https://launchpad.net/~dirk-computer42/+archive/c42-backport/+packages I provide a "no change" backport from raring to precise.

Using this backport results in the following update:

   accountsservice (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1)
   gir1.2-accountsservice-1.0 (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1)
   libaccountsservice0 (0.6.15-2ubuntu9.6 => 0.6.29-1ubuntu8~precise1~ppa1)

Using this packages solves for me the problem.

I suggest a backport of accountservice to precise to fix the problem in precise.
As a preliminary workaround my ppa may be used.
