showing the failure message

SUMMARY

Cannot create a Google account in the Online Accounts KCM.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1) go to System Settings -> Networking/Online Accounts
2) click +Add New Account -> Google
3) an authentication window appears, enter your Google account email address, click Next

OBSERVED RESULT

Before you can enter a password, a new window appears that says "Couldn't sign you in -- This browser or app may not be secure. Try using a different browser...."  I guess it doesn't like the built-in browser that KF6 is using for auth?


EXPECTED RESULT

Should be able to enter your password and continue with the sign in process.
