There have been many discussions which value to set for
`tramp-histfile-override', see for example
<https://debbugs.gnu.org/24478>. Unfortunately, there is no proper
default value satisfying everybody.

The error message means, you shall change the default value of that
variable.

Best regards, Michael.
