I certainly don't have more experience, but maybe it will help if I
report my own.

I have the very same problem with the following configuration:

Org mode version 9.0.8 (9.0.8-elpa @
/home/cochard/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20170606/)

GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.14.12) of
2015-05-07 on buildvm-08.phx2.fedoraproject.org

'uname -a' gives: Linux frac.u-strasbg.fr 4.1.13-100.fc21.x86_64 #1
SMP Tue Nov 10 13:13:20 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I've had this problem since I updated org ELPA on 24 dec 2016 (NB: I
have not changed my GNU emacs version or GNU/Linux distribution).


I performed the following tests (all independently from one another),
all with a void .emacs file.

(1) With 'emacs --no-site-file'

-> the error is present.

(2) With 'emacs --no-site-file' 

and after commenting the line

(autoload 'nnir-article-group "nnir" nil nil 'macro)

in file /usr/share/emacs/24.5/lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el (after having
gunzip'ed it) and also after having hidden the corresponding .elc file

-> the error is not present.

(3) With 'emacs --no-site-file --no-site-lisp'

-> the error is not present.

(4) With 'emacs --no-site-file'

and after hiding files nnir.el and nnir.elc, which are in dir
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnus-bonus

-> the error is not present.

The begining of file /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnus-bonus/ is

That was very useful, thanks for the detailed report! Looks like it's
the same as this:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1177978

Looks like uninstalling an emacs-goodies package might do the trick?
Anyway, you're meant to be loading nnir.el from
emacs/<version>/lisp/gnus/nnir.el, not site/lisp/gnus-bonus.

Eric

 Hi Eric, thanks much for the feedback.

Yes it did!  Also, the error is not present on another machine (with
Fedora 23) on which I could perform a test, with simply the command
'emacs' and a void .emacs file -- and of course the emacs-goodies
packages installed on that machine:

Org mode version 9.0.8 (9.0.8-elpa @ /root/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20170606/)

GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.18.9) of
2016-04-11 on buildvm-25.phx2.fedoraproject.org

So in your opinion what is the best to do in order to avoid this error
message, and, above all, the possible consequences related to this
problem? -- so far, I have not noticed any, but who knows...

- get rid of the file /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnus-bonus/nnir.el?
- get rid of the dir /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/gnus-bonus/altogether?
- something else?

Because uninstalling the emacs-goodies packages sound rather
extreme...  NB: I uses gnus very rarely.

Regards,
a.

Perhaps you could doctor your load-path early in the init process, so
that /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp comes later, and is shadowed by
emacs/<version>/lisp? On my machine the relevant load-path elements are
ordered as:

/usr/local/share/emacs/26.0.50/site-lisp
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp
/usr/local/share/emacs/26.0.50/lisp

If that's the case on your machine as well, perhaps you could remove
emacs/site-lisp, and re-add it at the end of the list. That has the
potential to break other things, though...

Yes, that's the same for me.  I'll try to investigate along that
line.  Thanks again for your time.
