Hello

In my vc installation the vc-user-login-name advice does not work
properly and I use:
(defadvice vc-user-login-name
  (around rcp-vc-user-login-name activate)
  "Support for files on remote machines accessed by RCP."
  (let ((filename))
    (condition-case err
        (setq filename (eval 'file))
      (error )
    )

    
    (or (and (stringp filename)
             (rcp-rcp-file-p  (rcp-handle-expand-file-name
filename))      ; rcp file
             (setq ad-return-value 
                   (rcp-handle-vc-user-login-name uid )); uid))
             ) ; get the owner name
        ad-do-it))                     ; else call the original
)

The above is not very clean but it works since it looks at the file
name.  I do not remember where filename was defined.
In any case, 'file' is not defined in my implementation and the advice
returns the local user name.

This is what I see as vc version.
;;;###autoload
(package-provide 'vc
                 :version 1.19
                 :type 'regular)

This is the last entry in the ChangeLog:

        * vc.el (vc-file-not-found-use-default): Created.
        (vc-backend-checkout): Use the above variable.

Regards

Mario
