RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Mitko Bogdanoski 2022-09-28 18:53:34 UTC 
Description of problem:

Currently it's not possible for an administrator to restrict which services can be enabled / disabled with GNOME Online Accounts.

On the other hand, it is possible to safelist online providers, but it's not possible to configure which services to be available per specific online provider.

Ideally, having a similar ability to safelist which of the available services are displayed in the Gnome Settings such as mail, calendar, printers, files, etc would be very convenient for the end users that will allow them to disable / enable specific services as needed.
Comment 3 Milan Crha 2022-09-29 06:26:18 UTC 
Thanks for a bug report. This is a huge change. Such things should be done upstream and only then backported to RHEL. It would not make any sense to carry a custom patch only in RHEL, not only due to maintenance burden. You already have an upstream bug, thus I'd simply close this and wait for the upstream (which can take quite a long, because the GOA is more or less unmaintained these days).
Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2022-09-29 06:26:25 UTC 
Development Management has reviewed and declined this request. You may appeal this decision by reopening this request.
Comment 6 Milan Crha 2022-09-29 20:28:46 UTC 
For what it's worth, I opened a merge request upstream with an implementation of this (see the linked upstream bug). It's currently awaiting review and some deeper testing. If approved, I can backport it to the RHEL 9. I'll keep this bug as is (aka closed) for now.
Comment 7 Tomas Popela 2024-06-12 07:15:23 UTC 
Reopening and migrating to JIRA as the upstream change was merged and the customer would like to see this in 9.5.
Comment 9 RHEL Program Management 2024-06-12 07:17:49 UTC 
Issue migration from Bugzilla to Jira is in process at this time. This will be the last message in Jira copied from the Bugzilla bug.
