I tried doing vc-dir without having entered my passphrase to enable
subjobs of Emacs to contact savannah.  So CVS would have failed.
But vc-dir gave no sign of this.  It created the buffer in the initial
state, and never said or did anything more.

In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.4 (mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.12.12)
 of 2009-08-11 on theobromine2

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately didn't get any
response at the time.)

I'm not sure I understand this bug report.  Was Emacs supposed to prompt
for a password here?  (I think I've repressed how CVS worked with
remote, password-protected repositories...)

More information was requested, but no response was given within a few
months, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.

Do you have a recipe for reproducing this, though?

I tried a session without an ssh agent, and I issued the `vc-update'
command, and I got an error buffer with the following data:

---

I am sorry my scenario was not clear.

Normally, VC commands fail when I have not previously specified my ssh
passphrase so CVS can contact savannah.  Emacs does not know how
to promptfor the passphrase on their behalf.

So normally I specify the passphrase in advance with ssh-add.

That time I forgot to run ssh-add, so the basic vc commands should
have failed.

But vc-dir didn't report a failure.  Instead it created the buffer
with no failure report, and then the buffer was nonresponsive to
commands.

The bug is that vc-dir did not fail when it should have failed.

Nothing precise.  I will try o come up with one.

The reason I use ssh-add is precisely because I always use ssh-agent.
I think ssh-agent is required to make the VC commands work for remote
CVS repos.
