            Bug ID: 308462
          Severity: normal
           Version: 4.9
          Priority: NOR

           Summary: Google Calendar and Tasks resource error dialog in
                    infinite loop when revoking access from google.
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: adz21c at gmail.com
          Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: Google Resource
           Product: Akonadi

After setting up a Google Calendar and Tasks resource I navigated to my google
account and revoked access to akonadi. I returned to the Google Calendar and
Tasks configuration dialog via Akonadi Configuration and a dialog appears
stating "The account is invalid.". I click ok and a dialog reappears preventing
me from solving the problem. This also occurs if I add a new resource.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a valid google calendar and tasks resource.
2. Navigate to google
3. Revoke Akonadi's account access.
4. Navigate to Akonadi Configration
5. Select the resource created earlier.
6. Click modify.
Actual Results:  
A dialog appears stating "The account is invalid.". Click OK and the dialog
reappears preventing the user from solving the problem or navigating away.

Expected Results:  
After clicking OK the UI should not prevent the user from removing the account,
adding another, or selecting a different account. Reselecting the same account
should continue to indicate it is invalid.

A work around is to open the google contacts configuration and remove the
invalid account from there. Additionally the google contacts configuration
should also indicate the account is invalid (currently it displays a
notification popup from desktop notification UI, but nothing within the
configuration itself indicates there is a problem).
