That's goole-contacts trying to get OAuth access. And it did get it
finally, so it stored the token in a GPG encrypted file (that's why
gnome-keyring's asking your password).

OAuth authentification, but the fact that it looped is strange.
Note that's nothing specific about gnus-notifications, more likely a
problem with google-contacts or oauth2.
