This should be fixed now, and hence the original issue.

This was not relevant. Dired itself does not process --dired,
insert-directory (which is not called by find-dired) does.
And in any case, --dired will not be useful with find, since there
could be multiple DIRED sections depending on how many files are found.

Hello,

this is on Debian Linux.

I create a directory "~/test a".

Now I run

   (find-name-dired "~" "*test*")

In the produced dired buffer, this directory is listed as "test\ a" (with
the space character quoted).

If I try to visit or find it from dired, I get this error:

  dired-get-file-for-visit: File no longer exists; type `g' to update dired buffer

This problem seems to be related to #10262.


- Michael.
