I've used Gnus for some number of years, pulling email via POP3 while
leaving it on the server. I've done this from gmail for at least 5 years, I
think.
Not too long ago, I moved from Debian Wheezy to Jessie, and it stopped
working. I was busy and didn't work on it for a while, but I just tried
again, found that I couldn't log into gmail because I lacked an app
password, and apparently fixed it.
I entered `3 g` and waited while gnus grabbed a few months of email. Then
it said it was moving them, as it should with nnsplit. Finally, it gave me
an error: `gnus-get-unread-articles: Wrong type argument: numberp, y`
I ran (setq debug-on-error t) in the scratch buffer and restarted Gnus. It
did the same thing, and then I ended up with this in a backtrace buffer:
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument numberp y)

gnus-setup-news(nil nil nil)

Does this make any sense to anyone? Anything else I should look at to
figure this out?
I'm running Gnus v5.13 on Emacs 24.4.1.
Thanks,
Bill
