Could not find image gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm for library gnus

[Pawel Tecza]

Binary package hint: gnus

When I run Gnus (5.11+v0.5.dfsg-3ubuntu1) on my Feisty box then I can
see the following warning message:

Could not find image gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm for library gnus

It seems that gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm file exists on my system:

ptecza@deepblack:~$ dpkg -L gnus |grep toggle-subscription.xpm
/usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/etc/images/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm

ptecza@deepblack:~$ ls -l /usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1204 2007-01-12 11:38 /usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm

ptecza@deepblack:~$ ls -l /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/etc/images/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 51 2007-08-15 16:37
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/etc/images/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm ->
../../../../../pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm

ptecza@deepblack:~$ file /usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm
/usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/toggle-subscription.xpm: X pixmap image text

I checked that I have a lot of Gnus XPM files:

ptecza@deepblack:~$ ls /usr/share/pixmaps/gnus/*xpm |wc -l
64

but I didn't noticed any problems with another one.

I sent a question [1] about that problem to gnu.emacs.gnus Usenet group,
because I'm not sure whether it's bug in gnus package or my Gnus is simply
misconfigured. Unfortunately, I didn't receive any valueable feedback.

It seems that it's not only my problem. Debian BTS includes two the same
bug reports and both still haven't been closed:

1. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=378515
2. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=433139

You can check that the first bug report is one year old... The second was
submitted about one month ago.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta or later?

Hello Daniel,

Unfortunately I don't know that, because I still haven't got any
machine with installed upcoming Ubuntu Intrepid.

My best regards,

Pawel

Can somebody please test if it is fixed? Thank you!
