bug#47058: 28.0.50; Dired Z: insert-directory: Reading directory: No such file or directory, CrossLine_linux_x86

[Jean Louis]

This is the error:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-missing "Reading directory" "No such file 
or directory" "CrossLine_linux_x86")
  access-file("CrossLine_linux_x86" "Reading directory")
  insert-directory("CrossLine_linux_x86" "--dired -al -d" nil nil)
  dired-insert-directory("/home/data1/protected/Downloads/" "-al -d" 
("CrossLine_linux_x86"))
  dired-add-entry("/home/data1/protected/Downloads/CrossLine_linux_x8..." nil t)
  
dired-update-file-line("/home/data1/protected/Downloads/CrossLine_linux_x8...")
  dired-compress()
  dired-map-over-marks-check(dired-compress nil compress t)
  dired-do-compress(nil)
  funcall-interactively(dired-do-compress nil)
  call-interactively(dired-do-compress nil nil)
  command-execute(dired-do-compress)

The error takes place when this file:
http://software.rochus-keller.info/CrossLine_linux_x86.tar.gz is
downloaded and in dired pressed Z:

insert-directory: Reading directory: No such file or directory, 
CrossLine_linux_x86

In my opinion, this file contains just one file, not directory, and
maybe uncompressing feature is looking for directory, but it should
not. Uncompress should work without error even with single files in the
compressed package.
