Here are the pces-20 elisp files installed on this system:
$ dlocate pces-20
xemacs21-basesupport: /usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages/lisp/apel/pces-20.elc
apel: /usr/share/apel/pces-20.el
xemacs21-basesupport-el: /usr/share/xemacs21/xemacs-packages/lisp/apel/pces-20.el.gz
and package versions:
ii xemacs21-basesuppor 2004.05.17-1 Editor and kitchen sink -- compiled elisp support file
ii apel 10.6+0.20040418-1 a portable Emacs library
But since emacs20 has been removed from Debian this bug can not be
considered as "grave". However, if gnus-bonus-el does not work with
emacs20, it should perhaps have a conflict in its dependencies.
