--- Comment #6 from Johannes Midgren <johannes at midgren.net> ---
I can confirm that the problem can still be reproduced in Kubuntu 20.04,
although my setup this time is a bit different. There is still no local account
on the machine (i.e. no record in /etc/passwd), but I'm using FreeIPA instead
of Active Directory as identity provider.

Reproduce like this:
- Enter system settings and goto Network Accounts ("Nätkonton" in my swedish
locale)
- Hit "Add new Account"
- Select Telegram
- At this point I can see something quickly flashing by on the screen but I'm
immediately brought back to the display shown when entering the "Network
Accounts" section (i.e. a list of my successfully registered online accounts).
That is, I'm not even shown a form where I can enter the account details.

I'm not sure this version of Telepathy can be considered "recent" though, so
I'll try to reproduce the issue in a newer environment when I have the
opportunity and then change status of this ticket. Of course others having
newer versions at hand are very welcome to run ahead, I'm not sure when I will
have a newer version available.
