There don;t seem to bnbe any problems with the .nersrc.eld, as I have
used the same file in emacs-26, master and scratch/gnus-decoded branches
without obvious problems.
There is a problem in the server buffer in the scratch/gnus-decoded buffer
with group names. In my setup:
1) Start gnus, and open the server buffer
2) Select the feedbase server. This is configured as:
(gnus-secondary-select-methods
'((nntp "feedbase"
(nntp-open-connection-function nntp-open-tls-stream)
(nntp-port-number 563)
(nntp-address "feedbase.org"))
...
3) Note that some group names are not decoded correctly in the server
buffer. The group names are decoded properly in the article buffer.
For example, (showing only names with problems):
server buffer (master branch):
K 140: feedbase.blog.københavnsskiklub
K 208: feedbase.news.brk.høringer
K 2017: feedbase.news.dr.hovedstadsområdet
server buffer (scratch/gnus-decoded branch):
K 140: feedbase.blog.k\303\270benhavnsskiklub
K 208: feedbase.news.brk.h\303\270ringer
K 2017: feedbase.news.dr.hovedstadsomr\303\245det
The raw bytes (shown as escapes above) match the UTF-8 for the expected
characters, so the decoding is not quite right.
