             Bug #: 42303
           Summary: Can't easily upgrade TpConnection on an already
                    prepared account manager
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: tp-glib
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: guillaume.desmottes at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


Let's say I have an app using only some common TpConnection features. Those are
passed to the factory and then the app prepares the TpAccountManager and starts
its work.

Then user opens a dialog using a very specific feature (say contact blocking).
The app adds this feature to the very and re-prepare the account manager.

expected result: once the AM has been re-prepared all its TpConnection have the
new feature.

actual result: the feature isn't prepared at all.


That basically means that for now the app has to prepare every single feature
that it MAY have to use at some point; even the rare ones.
