Then you probably mean, why `gnus-get-info' returns nil.

That's because `(intern-soft "comp.text.tex" gnus-newsrc-hashtb)'
returns nil.  `gnus-newsrc-hashtb' looks like

[[...] 0 0 0 0 0 0 nntp+news\.individual\.net:comp\.text\.tex 0 [...]]

So it seems that "comp.text.tex" doesn't match this.

The variable `gnus-newsrc-alist' which is used to build
`gnus-newsrc-hashtb' is set via the `(gnus-load ding-file)' call in
the function `gnus-read-newsrc-el-file'.  (BTW, there is a variable
`gnus-newsrc-assoc' let-bound in this function which is never set, so
this seems a bit useless.)  And in ~/.newsrc.eld the groups are
specified in the long form "nntp+news.individual.net:de.comp.text.tex".

That means either the `gnus-get-info' call has to use the long form as
its argument or the groups in the ~/.newsrc.eld file have to be
specified with their short forms.
