Oh, thanks, this is working great.

Build procedure if anyone need to patch and never have done so on ubuntu /
debian :
sudo apt-get build-dep kaccounts-integration
apt-get source kaccounts-integration
cd kaccounts-integration-15.08.3/   (this is if you are using
kubuntu-ppa, otherwise it will be version 15.08.2)
patch with
https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kaccounts-integration.git=commitdiff=fe6b9c7b2511ba5ebc15542b0b7280c55e17ffa4
(patch -p0 < yourpatch)
update debian/changelog with a new version number or your changes will be
overwritten at next package upgrade
dpkg-source --commit
dpkg-buildpackage
cd ../
sudo dpkg -i *.deb
enjoy

It should not.

However, 15.08.3 is known to be broken. I did notify the packagers
that they should backport a patch from 15.12 release that would
fix it. Apparently they didn't. You can still remind then though.

Yeah, seems like telepathy 15.08.3 is broken on kubuntu-ppa too, I added my
google account successfully but telepathy fails to login.

I ran gabble with debug (GABBLE_LOGFILE=/tmp/gabble.log GABBLE_PERSIST=1
GABBLE_DEBUG=all G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all /usr/lib/telepathy/telepathy-gabble)
which led me to this line in logfile :
(telepathy-gabble:2509): tp-glib/params-DEBUG:
tp_base_protocol_sanitize_parameters: using specified value for account:
"google.com"

mc-tool dump is confirming this 
  (string) account = google.com

Could someone with a working google account confirm that this "account" value
should be set to your google email address ?

Thanks, Martin, but it's not that important.
I just mentioned it for the completeness of this bug report. ICQ is for me
already a relic of the past :-)

You can try playing with mc-tool

Sometimes Telepathy gets stalled accounts (it shouldn't anymore).

Happy to say that Google Hangouts is connecting again for me on 15.12.1

(still no luck with ICQ nor Telegram though)

If you need help, ping mck182 in #kde-telepathy in freenode; I have icq working
just fine.

Is there a way to get a list of where Telepathy is storing it's data? 

I've removed all accounts in the config panel, deleted
~/.config/libaccounts-glib and ~/.config/signond, all mentions of ktp in
~/.config and in the (old?) ~/.kde directory, and still, even after reboot, it
is trying to connect to my XMPP account. So somewhere some old info is still
lingering, but I don't see where.

Fedora now updated to 15.12.1. Trying that now, so far without success.

Confirmed continued problem in my Fedora 23 KDE Plasma version 5.5.3.

You need kde-telepathy* 15.12.1.

Make sure you remove any google account you've added previously
and add it again.

Yes, I have removed the account, numerous times and re-added with the same
result.

Confirmed in Kubuntu 15.10 with telepathy 15.04.2 (15.04.20ubuntu1).

The symptom is exactly the same as Thomas'.

Thanks for the hint, David.
I tried deleting those directories and re-creating the accounts, but that
didn't change anything. Also my XMPP account now does not seem to connect
anymore at the moment.
(Google, ICQ, Telegram, ... all still not connecting)

I ended up completely deleting ~/.config/libaccounts-glib and ~/.config/signond
and re-creating all the accounts from scratch. Conversation logs are stored
under ~/.local/share/TpLogger. You can pair them back with the newly created
accounts if you wish (mc-tool dump will be your guide). Look at
https://community.kde.org/KTp/Setting_up_KAccounts for an illustration of how
complicated the authentication in KTp is. With all the libraries, daemons,
plugins and their ever-changing protocols and configuration formats, it's
wonder that the KTp works at all (sometimes). Btw, I was horrified when I
realized, that the signond "secrets" database is stored in plain text and is
readable by group (which, in my case, is users!).

I was waiting for Fedora to push 15.08.3 to see whether that actually fixes the
bugs, but if 15.12.0 still has the same issues, that's not very likely.

But I wonder if it's only my (Fedora) install of Telepathy that's so completely
messed up, or if it's a general thing. These should be separate bugs, but next
to Google Hangouts, also ICQ is not working and Telegram keeps asking for the
non-existing 'morse' package. Actually, only XMPP is at this point working as
it should.
