23.0.60; C-x v v in an ordinary file throws strange error

[David Kastrup]

Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the address@hidden mailing list.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

I pressed C-x v v in a buffer associated with a file not under version
control.

The backtrace is

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Selecting deleted buffer")
  vc-deduce-fileset(nil t)
  vc-next-action(nil)
  call-interactively(vc-next-action nil nil)
