Description Ewan.LEBIDEAU-CANEVET 2013-06-03 12:57:50 UTC 
1. Boot System
2. Opened contacts
2.1 Selected online accounts
2.2 Added Google account
3. Google contacts not shown in "Main contacts", need to select "All contacts"

However, goa-daemon was running Google accounts were shown and usable in Empathy just fine.

Please report the distro you're using and the versions of those packages ...

Do you have Contacts in Google's My Contacts category ?
Comment 3 Ewan.LEBIDEAU-CANEVET 2013-06-04 08:47:08 UTC 
There is no such category , in "View" there is two categories, "Main contacts" which is shown by default but empty, and "All contacts"

I meant in your Google Contacts, not in the app, your Google Contacts (as accessible from the web). Do you have in your online source contacts in that category ?
Comment 5 Ewan.LEBIDEAU-CANEVET 2013-06-04 13:14:09 UTC 
No they are in the "Frequently used" and other contacts" by default. The only one contact I have in "My contact" is my mail adress.

So, that's the expected behavior. The thing is the differentiation between Main and All contacts it's confusing. I'm marking this bug as duplicate of bug 696270
