Well, the mode line shows Quassia Gnus v0.29, when I do M-x gnus <RET>,
and from Gnus, C-c C-i shows Quassia-0.29 Info.

I did do something that may be responsible:

In my '/usr/share/emacs/20.2/lisp/gnus' directory where the
Emacs-20.2.rpm (non-mule) installed the5.5 gnus files, I made a new
directory (gnus5.5) and moved all the original gnus *.el and #.elc
there, so they wouldn't be access but would still be available.

Then moved all the quassia-0.29 *.el and *.elc files into
'/usr/share/emacs/20.2/lisp/gnus' so they would be accessed instead of
original 5.5 files.

This seemed like it should work alright, and I can run quassia-0.29 that
way, but I suppose I might have dorked up an important file in the moving
or something.
