Subject: problem in `nnheader-report'?
Date: 30 Apr 2001 15:21:18 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87lmoiurbl.church.of.emacs@space-ghost.verbum.org> (raw)
In CVS, there seems to be a problem with either the function
`nnheader-report', or some of the calls to it in
`nntp-retrieve-groups'. For example, the code:
(unless (gnus-buffer-live-p buf)
(error
(nnheader-report 'nntp "Connection to %s is closed." server)))
in nntp.el seems to expect nnheader-report to return a string, but it
currently always returns nil. So here's a patch which should make it
return the string. I'm not sure if this is the correct fix or not,
but it seems to work.

* nnheader.el (nnheader-report): Return the string instead of nil.
