thank you that helped, error is gone.
So I won't be doing any more updates now.
You always have problems with PIM.

I narrowed this down to https://invent.kde.org/pim/libkgapi/-/commit/6fa8198750e7624bd7be643c8a8c428dc58a1d6d

Reverted that commit and didn't get any authentication prompts for over 24 hours. Went back to 20.12.0 and I'm getting prompts every few hours again.

This patch fully resolves issue for me, no more annoying google auth popups every hour.

Thank you so much for fixing this! However, the page with your fix says it can't be merged without a rebase, or something like that.

This bug has been irritating me a lot, and I don't have the hard drive space to compile things myself. Would really appreciate this getting merged and a new release coming out with the fix.

I applied that patch but every machine reboot, akonadi requires google authentication via web browser. 
I don't know if is linked at this bug.
Comment 18 Colin J Thomson 2021-02-09 16:13:56 UTC 
Updated to 20.12.2 and that has fixed it for me. Even after restarts there are no more authentication pop ups, Thank you.
