Subject: Unexpected behavior in gnus-group-list-groups after gnus-group-get-new-news
Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:07:13 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fs1rmbly.fsf@codeisgreat.org> (raw)
I am using Emacs from emacs-29 branch head.
Before calling gnus-group-get-new-news with ARG my group buffer looks
like this. i.e. pressing "l" gnus-group-list-groups, the group buffer
shows this.

* 0:*nntp+gmane:gmane.emacs.gnus.general

--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But after I call gnus-group-get-new-news with ARG like this "C-u 1 g",
the group buffer shows only groups with level 1 and unread
messages. This is fine.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
9: nnimap+otp:INBOX
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
But now if I press "l", the group buffer shows many old groups also,
which I subscribed at some point in time.

I'm unsure which variable or setting the l command (i.e.,
gnus-group-list-groups) refers to in this context. Is it
gnus-level-subscribed, gnus-group-default-list-level, or something else?
I'd appreciate any insights into this behavior.
Can someone explain what is going on here? To summarize: after calling
gnus-group-get-new-news with an argument and then listing groups with l,
I'm seeing old groups that I had previously subscribed to. I expect not
to see these old groups.
