This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

I'm surprised nobody has seen this.

In a bzr repository, do
% bzr rm some-file

and modify some other file.

Then in Emacs, do vc-dir on the directory where the file was.
Mark the file that is listed as removed.  Also mark the edited file.
Press v.

Expected result: I can type in a log message and commit.
Real result: A prompt in the minibuffer appears:
some-file is edited but read-only; make it writable and continue? (y/n) 

This is because in vc.el, vc-next-action there is this:

      (let ((ready-for-commit files))
        ;; If files are edited but read-only, give user a chance to correct
        (dolist (file files)
          (unless (file-writable-p file)
            ;; Make the file+buffer read-write.
            (unless (y-or-n-p (format "%s is edited but read-only; make it 
writable and continue? " file))
              (error "Aborted"))
            ;; Maybe we somehow lost permissions on the directory.
            (condition-case nil
                (set-file-modes file (logior (file-modes file) 128))
              (error (error "Unable to make file writable")))

Files/directories that are removed are obviously not file-writable-p, so the 
logic is wrong.
Also, the choices in the question should be three:

1 Make writable and continue.
2 Don't make writable and continue
3 Abort

As it is now, you either exit on the "Aborted" error or if you try to continue 
on the "Unable to make file writable" error.

I restricted the toggle-read-only business to RCS and SCCS (the latter
might not even need it either).
