X-Debbugs-CC: michael.albinus@gmx.de

Hello,

I have been seeing this "tramp-error: Package `tramp-archive' not supported" for may be about a month. This error happens whenever I try to git stage an archive file like foo.tar.xz using Magit.

I cannot debug this error as M-x toggle-debug-on-error does not give any backtrace, and even (setq debug-on-message "not supported") doesn't do anything.

This issue looks the exact same like https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30293, but I see that that is already closed about a month back, whereas I still see this on the master build as of 03/15 (last week).

I have seen this issue only when staging *new* *.tar.xz files in Magit, but I cannot invoke backtrace by any means.. Please let me know what I can do to better understand this problem, and help fix it.

Thanks.
