Well, I have just announced a new version which tries to give better
error reporting. (One of the functions discarded the output before
letting you look at it -- not very enlightening.) What happens when
you use that?
Also, in your case the bug occurred in rcp-handle-file-local-copy.
Here's how to debug this: say M-x debug-on-entry RET
rcp-handle-file-local-copy RET. Then do your thing. Emacs will stop
in the debugger to show you what it is executing. Play around with
`d' (single-step) and `c' (eval until current expression is finished)
until you get to the call-process call. Carefully note its return
value. Also tell me whether the local file gets created.
