Resolution Note:
During the investigation we have determined the following:
1- The issue is present on the package user's machine if the path to extract the package is too long for windows to handle. This is not something Unity can change. In this specific reported case, the user has a language pack for Korean language which can increase the issue with path length.
2- The name of the asset is by itself very long "3D Object Image for UGUI - MiniMap Inventory Portrait.unitypackage". Excluding the extension, the name of the file is over 50 characters long, which augments the probability of getting a "path too long" issue on Windows.
The best course of action to mitigate this issue is for the publisher to reduce the name of the asset file directly. This will reduce the odds of having a "path too long" and possibly eliminate it completely. The current name of the file evokes a marketing title, not a file title, which means the publisher can easily shorten it.
Unity cannot fix the "file too long path" issue, which is a known Windows issue and not related to Unity.
Thank you for understanding.
