On current master, but released Emacs 26.3 has the same problem:
Recipe:
-------
emacs -Q
C-x d [or otherwise invoke dired]
[pick a file]
M-x dired-do-compress-to [and provide suitable value to the prompt]
=> Symbol’s function definition is void: format-spec
-------
`dired-do-compress-to' uses the function `format-spec', provided by
format-spec.el, but its containing library (dired-aux.el) only declares
the function without providing for loading it when needed.
In GNU Emacs 27.0.50 (build 15, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw scroll bars)
of 2019-11-12 built on panda

I've now fixed this on the trunk by making that function require
format-spec.
