Hello,

isearch fails to highlight in dired and displays the following error:
[image: image.png]

As dired sets text property 'invisible to a symbol, either:
'dired-hide-details-detail, 'dired-hide-details-information or
'dired-hide-details-link, in order for isearch to properly highlight the
searched string in a dired buffer, the following patch ought to be applied
to isearch-range-invisible:
diff -u isearch.el~ isearch.el
--- isearch.el~ 2019-09-10 02:32:49.000000000 +0200
