[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The setup is the same as bug#55166:

/ssh:dan <at> solstice:/tmp/ #$ touch a b c
/ssh:dan <at> solstice:/tmp/ #$ tar cf test.tar a b c
/ssh:dan <at> solstice:/tmp/ #$ xz test.tar

but in this case write-file throws an error instead of failing silently:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument "listp
(tramp-file-name-handler tramp-crypt-file-name-handler .
inhibit-file-name-handlers)")
  signal(wrong-type-argument ("listp (tramp-file-name-handler
tramp-crypt-file-name-handler . inhibit-file-name-handlers)"))

Oops, a comma is missing. Could you pls try the appended patch? Note
that, due to macro expansion, you must recompile lisp/net/tramp.el first
and then lisp/net/tramp-sh.el afterwards.

Best regards, Michael.

Thanks for the feedback. I've pushed the patch to the repositories. Will
be available with Emacs 29.2 and with Tramp 2.6.1.3 from GNU ELPA.

Closing the bug.

Best regards, Michael.
