Gnus in Emacs bzr revision 101985 acting weird

[Ashish SHUKLA]

Hi everyone,

I use Gnus as my MUA, and I've noticed that it is acting weird for
me. Everytime I read a mail with Gnus, in the "Summary" buffer, I don't get an
"R" in the left column of the "Summary" buffer as displayed in the image at
the following URL:

To verify the problem, I cloned Gnus repo, restarted my Emacs, and before
loading Gnus with M-x gnus, I eval'd following code in *scratch* buffer:

#v+
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/elisp/gnus/lisp")
(require 'gnus-load)
#v-

Now in "No Gnus", I can see the "R" in the left column in the "Summary"
buffer, every time I read a mail, as displayed in the image at the following
URL:

During all this, I've not modified my "~/.gnus" or "~/.emacs.d/init.el". I'm
wondering if I should report this as bug or already a known issue ?

Also recently I'm noticing that every time I visit a group in *Group* buffer,
I get following message:

"Key sequence $ t starts with non-prefix key $"

A back trace is pasted below:

#v+
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Key sequence $ t starts with non-prefix 
key $")
  define-key((keymap #^[nil nil keymap #...) "$t" 
nnmairix-search-thread-this-article)
  nnmairix-summary-mode-hook()
  run-hooks(gnus-summary-mode-hook)
  apply(run-hooks gnus-summary-mode-hook)
  run-mode-hooks(gnus-summary-mode-hook)
  apply(run-mode-hooks gnus-summary-mode-hook)
  gnus-run-mode-hooks(gnus-summary-mode-hook)
  gnus-summary-mode("nnmaildir:mailing-lists.emacs-devel")
  gnus-summary-setup-buffer("nnmaildir:mailing-lists.emacs-devel")
  gnus-summary-read-group-1("nnmaildir:mailing-lists.emacs-devel" nil t nil nil 
nil)
  gnus-summary-read-group("nnmaildir:mailing-lists.emacs-devel" nil t nil nil 
nil nil)
  gnus-group-read-group(nil t)
  gnus-group-select-group(nil)
  gnus-topic-select-group(nil)
  call-interactively(gnus-topic-select-group nil nil)
#v-

Please note that I've removed the keymap from the define-key line above as
it's quite big.

Following is an excerpt from the lisp/gnus/nnmairix.el where this error
occurs:

#v+
;; Summary mode
(defun nnmairix-summary-mode-hook ()
  "Nnmairix summary mode keymap."
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ t") 'nnmairix-search-thread-this-article)
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ f") 'nnmairix-search-from-this-article)
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ m") 'nnmairix-widget-search-from-this-article)
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ g") 'nnmairix-create-search-group-from-message)
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ o") 'nnmairix-goto-original-article)
  (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map
    (kbd "$ u") 'nnmairix-remove-tick-mark-original-article))
#v-
