http://maemo.org/packages/view/telepathy-extras/

I installed "Extra protocol plugins for Conversations and Contacts 0.8" and
after disabling Extras-Devel repository I succeed (before in Extras-Devel I got
a "upstart-job" dependency missing error when trying to install).

I can confirm this and assume that it's a telepathy-extras issue and not a
Maemo issue. As telepathy-extras is not official part of Maemo, can you please
file a bug report at
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Telepathy&component=m5-account-plugins
and link to it from here?

For reference, I have users of The One Ring reporting similar issues.  From my
understanding Connection Managers only report what settings they accept and it
is up to the caller to store the users settings, in this case RTComm.  I am not
aware of anyway (besides a CM being evil and manipulating RTComm's settings
storage) that a CM could affect these settings.  The only case I can think of
where this might cause issues is if the CM changes what settings it wants.  The
One Ring has not done this in a while but I got a user reporting this issue
just the other day.

RTComm stores the settings at /home/user/.rtcom-accounts/accounts.cfg

I don't know if it would matter that much but posting the section that isn't
working (except password ;) ) might be helpful to some.

Closing in this bugtracker as INVALID as this should be handled in upstream
bugtracker (see URL field).
