I hope yu changed "/path/to/gnus..." with the actual location of your
new Gnus lisp directory?

Try starting XEmacs, and evaluating `load-path' in the *scratch*
buffer.  It should print a long list whose first element should be
"/.../gnus-5.8.2/lisp".  If not, it means that something went wrong
with evaluating your .emacs.

If yes, type `M-x locate-library RET gnus RET'.  If all is right, it
should print something like:

    Library is file /.../gnus-5.8.2/lisp/gnus.elc

OTOH, if it prints something like:

    Library is file /usr/local/lib/xemacs-packages/lisp/gnus/gnus.elc

...then it likely means that you've misspelled the directory name.
Check the spelling and try again.
