Hallo.

When I try to run gnus with M-x gnus, it fails with the following error in 
*Messages* buffer:
Loading gnus-agent...
custom-initialize-reset: Symbol's value as variable is void: 
message-valid-fqdn-regexp

I tried to track the problem as far I could. Below there are the results:

1) problem probably occurs as gnus-art.el is evaluated, at variable definition:
(defcustom gnus-button-valid-fqdn-regexp
  message-valid-fqdn-regexp    ;;; <----- this does not exist.
  "Regular expression that matches a valid FQDN."
  :group 'gnus-article-buttons
  :type 'regexp)

2) I found the `message-valid-fqdn-regexp' definition in 
/emacs-packages/gnus-5.10.6/lisp/message.elc
   As I checked it with M-x describe-variable, it is not defined indeed.
   I visited /emacs-packages/gnus-5.10.6/lisp/message.el file, and tried to 
check whether other variables from this file are defined, and they are not. It 
looks like /emacs-packages/gnus-5.10.6/lisp/message.elc file is not loaded at 
all.

3) my gnus init file looks like the following:

(setq load-path (delete "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/gnus" load-path)) ;;. 
remove emacs `built-in' gnus path from load path.
(setq load-path (cons "/emacs-packages/gnus-5.10.6/lisp" load-path))
(require 'gnus-load)

(require 'info)
(setq Info-directory-list
(cons (concat mk-gnus-dir "/texi") Info-default-directory-list)) ;;. Note: read 
emacs.txt comments in section "reading many `dir' files and virtually merging 
them to one file in emacs".

(require 'gnus)
(require 'gnus-group)

4) 
load-path's value is 
("/emacs-packages/gnus-5.10.6/lisp" "/emacs-packages/vm-7.19" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/site-lisp" "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp" 
"/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/lang" "/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-start.d" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/leim" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/toolbar" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/textmodes" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/progmodes" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/play" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/obsolete" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/net" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/mail" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/language" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/international" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/eshell" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/emulation" "/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/emacs-lisp" 
"/usr/share/emacs/21.2/lisp/calendar")

Do You have any ideas what I am doing wrong

Greetings.
