I really think he's using gnus as an elsip package picked at random to
illlustrate that some packages break when you --remove them (everything
is fine when you --purge). The broken packages must be due to following
some template file; grep for "Nils Naumann" in there...
Kai is not a DD, just a very competent emacs person. Please cut him
some slack.
