Doug that's exactly what the bug says and why I filled it, you are not being asked for the auth code simply because there is a bug in the login. I filled the bug, the annoyance is because the application is asking for a password it doesn't need.
My feeling is that it is using some remanent pre-update account. In response Sebastian Bacher, I don't believe it's an upstream bug, since is generated in the upgrade process, I think the accounts were ill transformed in the upgrade process, either way I generated a bug report in gnome-calendar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- calendar/+bug/1726922 ** Description changed: Once in a while, perhaps two or three times a day gnome-calendar pops up a dialog asking for my google password. I have two online google accounts set, but the problem begun after I upgraded from zesty, where I had those two accounts as well. They didn't appear in the new settings application, but still gnome-calendar was asking for the password. One of them has two phase authentication set and the other not. After I added the online accounts in the new settings app, the calendar is synchronized but it still popping the authentication window and is very annoying. + + bug report in gnome-calendar: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source + /gnome-calendar/+bug/1726922 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: gnome-calendar 3.26.2-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.13.0-16.19-generic 4.13.4 Uname: Linux 4.13.0-16-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.7-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Tue Oct 24 12:45:09 2017 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gnome-calendar InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-04-14 (193 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 17.04 "Zesty Zapus" - Release amd64 (20170412) ProcEnviron: - SHELL=/bin/bash - XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> - PATH=(custom, user) - LANGUAGE=es_UY:es - LANG=es_UY.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> + PATH=(custom, user) + LANGUAGE=es_UY:es + LANG=es_UY.UTF-8 SourcePackage: gnome-calendar UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to artful on 2017-10-22 (1 days ago) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-calendar in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1726922 Title: gnome-calendar keeps asking for my google password To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-calendar/+bug/1726922/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
