The commit 04f723dec944eaa7b5e99373840a8bf920ba5fdd
broke my config with the error signaled by insert-directory:
(error "Listing directory failed but ‘access-file’ worked")
When dired-listing-switches is customized to
"-Alv --block-size='1"
split-string-and-unquote parses switches correctly:
("--dired" "-Alv" ""--block-size='1" "-t")
But split-string-shell-command does a wrong thing:
("--dired" "-Alv"" "--block-size=1 -t")
and ls fails:
/bin/ls: invalid suffix in --block-size argument '1 -t'
