Error when running full text search in Magento 1.9.3.0

Question

I was installing some e-commerce tagging for a customer (cart.phtml and view.phtml) and after doing some regression testing it was found that the full-text search function was not working. This function was not tested prior to work commencing so it is not clear whether I can rule out my changes at this time.

The error that is being reported is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method Mage_CatalogSearch_Model_Resource_Fulltext::getFoundData() in app/code/core/Mage/CatalogSearch/Model/Resource/Fulltext/Collection.php on line 148

I definitely didn't touch this script at all, but one thing I didn't do was a test if the search was working in the first place. The relevant source code from this script is:

public function getFoundIds()
    {
        if (is_null($this->_foundData)) {
            /** @var Mage_CatalogSearch_Model_Fulltext $preparedResult */
            $preparedResult = Mage::getSingleton('catalogsearch/fulltext');
            $preparedResult->prepareResult();
            $this->_foundData = $preparedResult->getResource()->getFoundData();
        }
        if (isset($this->_orders[self::RELEVANCE_ORDER_NAME])) {
            $this->_resortFoundDataByRelevance();
        }
        return array_keys($this->_foundData);
    }

Searching for errors relating to this class and getFoundData() have not been fruitful.

This does not appear to be the same issue as Magento 1.9.3: every product is displayed in the search in full text mode as I am not seeing any search results.

A little late to the show but maybe this can help others. We had the same error after our 1.9.2.4 -> 1.9.3.3 upgrade. This is a call to the getFoundData method within Fulltext.php. We happened to have a custom version of Fulltext.php in our /local code base which was based on 1.9.2.4. This custom version does not contain the getFoundData method. Removed the /local version and the search works fine. Now trying to figure out why we needed a custom version in the first place!
