X-Git-Tag: emacs-27.0.90~5203
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=30f5fa75da7719a22281402ec697aa40c8ce4ed1;p=emacs.git

Remove call to string-as-unibyte in gnus-start.el

* lisp/gnus/gnus-start.el (gnus-read-newsrc-el-file): Remove
string-as-unibyte call, which appears not to do anything much in
