Thus, as I'm changing jobs, I transferred .emacs, .newsrc and .newsrc.eld to my new computer. Unfortunately a different distro, ("scientific linux"), but still. It works. Nearly. M-x gnus displays my groups, but as soon as I press enter inside any group buffer - no matter whether it's mail or news - to view an article, I get an error. At least, without X. Below is the backtrace.
