Subject: Bug: auth-sources not set before retrieving authinfo

Hello, I'm bothered by the behaviour that Gnus always asks me to
decrypt my .authinfo.gpg, though none of the servers need
authentication.
I had a look at the source and found the bug here:
At nntp.el, around line 1197, at beginning of defun
nntp-send-authinfo, a call to auth-source-search is made. This
function parses entries in auth-sources, which should be
nntp-authinfo-file, as suggested by the manual; but we didn't set
it. Therefore it's trying to visit the default auth source
files, and decrypts that.
I guess the solution is to add this in the let*, before that
call:
(auth-sources (list nntp-authinfo-file))
Can you add it and try?
PS. I don't know why specifying (nntp-authinfo-function my-no-op)
doesn't work, where my-no-op is a function that accepts any
parameter and does nothing; it's never called. Perhaps another
bug out there.
