Okay, here it is:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument stringp nil)
expand-file-name(nil "/home/angeli/News/marks/news.individual.net/de/comp/text/tex/")
(let ((file ...)) (if (file-exists-p file) (condition-case err ... ...) (let ... ... ... ... ... ... ...)))
nntp-open-marks("de.comp.text.tex" "news.individual.net")
(if nntp-marks-is-evil nil (nntp-possibly-create-directory group server) (nntp-open-marks group server) (dolist (action actions) (let ... ... ...)) (nntp-save-marks group server))
(unless nntp-marks-is-evil (nntp-possibly-create-directory group server) (nntp-open-marks group server) (dolist (action actions) (let ... ... ...)) (nntp-save-marks group server))
nntp-request-set-mark("de.comp.text.tex" (((172736) add (read))) "news.individual.net")
funcall(nntp-request-set-mark "de.comp.text.tex" (((172736) add (read))) "news.individual.net")
(if (not (gnus-check-backend-function ... ...)) action (funcall (gnus-get-function gnus-command-method ...) (gnus-group-real-name group) action (nth 1 gnus-command-method)))
(let* ((gnus-command-method ...) (gnus-agent ...)) (if (not ...) action (funcall ... ... action ...)))
gnus-request-set-mark("nntp+news.individual.net:de.comp.text.tex" (((172736) add (read))))
gnus-update-read-articles("nntp+news.individual.net:de.comp.text.tex" nil)
gnus-summary-update-info()
gnus-summary-exit()
call-interactively(gnus-summary-exit)
I noticed that after starting Gnus, an `M-: nntp-marks-file-name RET'
returns ".marks". But after switching to "Unplugged" state with `J j',
the same command returns nil.
