Hi,

Is there any way to upgrade (or "downgrade", for that matter) Gnus
without the need to restart Emacs?

I tried doing `M-x gnus-unload' and at a first glance everything seems
fine (for example, the new version number is displayed during startup,
instead of an old one), but when I try to *do* something (like
entering a group or getting new mail/news) things became really messed
up, and I get whole bunch of error messages.

I'm using XEmacs 20.4, if that is relevant.

Not that I know of.  `M-x gnus-unload' has *never* worked for me.

I've never really tried `gnus-unload'.  It unbinds all Gnus variables
and functions, but perhaps that's not sufficient...
