See [1], which is apparently not going to be fixed; the Debian Gnus maintainer does not seem to care much about his package. If you want to give Gnus a try, I suggest that you use either the one that comes with Emacs 22 (install the emacs22-common-non-dfsg package from non-free to get the documentation) or the stable Gnus 5.10.8, available at http://gnus.org/dist/gnus-5.10.8.tar.gz, if you are using Etch and Emacs 21. > apt-cache search gnus documentation > > does not yield any relevant hits.

Well, if you depend on getting documentation along with the software, Debian probably is the wrong operating system for you ([1], [2], [3], [4]). Don't expect to be able to use it without googling around and finding the docs missing from Debian.
