Bug Description

On fresh raring installs (I have tried on 3) when trying to add a yahoo account, on first try I do see the username and password boxes, but after pressing done/cancel, I can not get them to show again, neither by adding a new yahoo account, nor by editing the existing one. (Only the Cancel and Done buttons appear, no textboxes)
This did work on Quantal.

After debugging, the line it seems to get blocked on is "if (priv->ready)" in method empathy_account_settings_check_readyness from empathy-account-settings.c (the debug log before is printed, but the log after - neither the one in the if nor the one after the closing bracket - is not).

Let me know if I can help you with any further details.

As a note: the symptoms are similar to the ones of bug #1147639, only that one is for the IRC provider.
