I have tried, but the following code makes Emacs loop on an error 
(therefore save your work before trying it):

(defun isearch-forward-package ()
  (interactive)
  (add-hook 'isearch-mode-hook 'yank-package-line-regexp nil t)
  (unwind-protect
      (isearch-forward-regexp)
    (remove-hook 'isearch-mode-hook 'yank-package-line-regexp t)))

(defun yank-package-line-regexp ()
  (isearch-yank-string "^  "))
