Bug Description

After upgrading from 20.04 LTS to 22.04 LTS, my Google accounts were disconnected.

In the "Parameters/Online accounts" window, a double-click on each Google account opens a window indicating "authentication data expired. Please login to use this account".

A click on the "Login" button opens a blank window, the only thing I can do is closing the window.

Problem identified today : the folder ~/.local/share/webkitgtk is owned by root, with no permissions granted to other users.

I changed the permissions to RW for other users, and I am now able to log in my google accounts !
