From issue140, this needs documentation, maybe.

Good!  So we have a happy end except for the time we all spent on
this.  Thanks for reorting back, Uwe!

Ups I forgot

that binding I do not have, but vc-print-log works fine.

same here I do not have the binding but the command works fine

No: check in and check out works fine, at least it seems, but the
command line vc tells me the versions are absent. This is really odd

So I don't know who is the culprit, but one of my important tools do
not work any longer.

Thanks for the report, Uwe.

I have since install cygwin rcs 5.7-3 on my Windows XP PC and tested a
bit with vc package version 1.42.

What are your relevant packages and versions?

I have noticed that, while I can perform
C-x v l runs the command vc-print-log
just fine on a pre-existing file, I cannot check the file out with
C-x v v runs the command vc-next-action

What I get is
co: RCS/RCS\\aliases-xemacs,v: No such file or directory

When I do
M-: (setq directory-sep-char ?/)
in the db.xemacs buffer, then I can check out that file.

Are you observing this problem too?

Hello

What I report has been tested with xemacs-21.4.19 mule and non mule,
starting xemacs -vanilla.

    - step 1: I create a  new simple text file, 'test2.txt' write
      a line, load vc and register the file.

    -  co -p1 test.txt, gives me 

test2.txt,v  -->  standard output
revision 1.1
this is the first line

    -  I add a line, checkin either via
       vc-toggle-read-only or via the menu. 

   -  co -p2 test.txt, gives me 

test2.txt,v  -->  standard output
co: test2.txt,v: revision 2 absent

And I think this is the origin of all problems. The ,v file is
not generated correctly hence later I cannot visit earlier
versions since the do not exit.

I attach test2.txt and test2.txt,v

Any help is strongly appreciated
