I sometimes get this error when downloading articles with `J s' in a
plugged state. It happens with both nntp and nnml groups.
Signaling: (wrong-type-argument listp nnml:)
gnus-group-category ("nnml+private:list.ditherati")
gnus-agent-fetch-group-1("nnml+private:list.ditherati" (nnml "private"))
gnus-agent-fetch-session()
chr-get-news()
#<compiled-function nil "...(9)" [gnus-plugged
gnus-group-get-new-news chr-get-news] 1 nil nil>()
call-interactively(chr-get-maybe)
Adhering to the documentation of that variable, my .gnus does
(setq gnus-secondary-select-methods '((nnml "private")))
What should I change to avoid this? It occurs to me that the
following function is the offender:
(defun gnus-group-category (group)
"Return the category GROUP belongs to."
(unless gnus-category-group-cache
(setq gnus-category-group-cache (gnus-make-hashtable 1000))
(let ((cs gnus-category-alist)
groups cat)
(while (setq cat (pop cs))
(setq groups (cadddr cat))
(while groups
(gnus-sethash (pop groups) cat gnus-category-group-cache)))))
(or (gnus-gethash group gnus-category-group-cache)
(assq 'default gnus-category-alist)))
;;;;, perhaps the following var contains something unexpected?
`gnus-category-alist' (buffer: gnus-agent.el, mode: Emacs-Lisp)
Variable:
value: ((mail true nil nnml:) (default short nil nil))
variable not documented
Thanks for any hints.
