This is a very interesting bug. It happened on David's device as well, and I could finally debug the situation.
The problem is that constructing a QNetworkAccessManager takes 10 seconds. I'm attaching a trace log (with timestamp, and 256 bytes of string data) which is taken from a minimal test application. ** Attachment added: "strace.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts/+bug/1380683/+attachment/4242659/+files/strace.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-system-settings- online-accounts in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1380683 Title: Web app requiring account, and "Online Accounts" account screen, disappear without explanation Status in “qtbase-opensource-src” package in Ubuntu: New Status in “ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 14.10 r279 1.
