On my Emacs 29 on Ubuntu 24, I use dired, but when I browse a directory I get output like "//DIRED-OPTIONS//" [some numbers here]--quoting-style=literal" at the bottom of the listing. When I refresh the additional stuff goes away I get a clean directory listing. It doesn't look like Dired is taking out the DIRED-OPTIONS part when it shows ls output to the user.
