Candidates function ‘helm-ag--do-ag-candidate-process’ should run a process

[arichiardi]

Emacs version 27.0.50

Operating system Ubuntu

Steps to reproduce

It seems that whenever I start helm-projectile-ag and then delete whatever it is in the minibuffer, and add -s (space after the -s), the error is thrown.

Expected behavior

to return zero candidates?

Actual behavior

Error running timer: (error "Candidates function ‘helm-ag--do-ag-candidate-process’ should run a process")
error in process sentinel: while: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)
error in process sentinel: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)
error in process sentinel: while: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)
error in process sentinel: Invalid search bound (wrong side of point)

This is a problem in emacs-helm's helm-do-ag, which helm-projectile leverages. Please report it upstream.
