bug#42895: 27.1; error when moving files in dired

[Waleed Yousef]

Thanks all;

I downloaded the new dired+.el and had this in my .emacs (so I commented
out the dired-fixups):

(load "~/.emacs.d/loadpath/dired+.el")
;;(require 'dired-fixups)
(require 'dired-tar)

and it works perfect now.

Please, just confirm to me that I no longer need dired-fixups
