With which version did you compile Gnus? I'm guessing with the Emacs23.2 one, which could explain the above error because I think the EIEIO from Emacs23.2 is not compatible with Emacs24 (while byte-code from older versions should be compatible, at least I noticed some problems after the lexbind merge in this area). >> You should update to the latest Emacs-bzr snapshot > > I might give it a try though, and let you know if it fixes it. You could first try if compiling with Emacs24 fixes your problem. -David
