Package: coreutils Version: 7.1-2 Severity: normal Since upgrading to coreutils 7.1, ls -v no longer sorts correctly; specifically, some dotfiles now appear at the end rather than with the other dotfiles. I use LC_COLLATE=C, so this does not represent a locale problem.
The correct sorting, with coreutils 6.10-6: $ ls -a -v .. .. .0 .9 .A .Z .a .z 0 9 A Z a z The incorrect sorting, With coreutils 7.1-2: $ ls -a -v .. .A .Z .a .z 0 9 A Z a z .0 .9 .. Notice that .0, .9, and .. moved to the end. The NEWS file for coreutils says: ls -v now uses filevercmp function as sort predicate (instead of strverscmp) This seems like a likely culprit. - Josh Triplett -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.43-2 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.9-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 2.0.71-1 SELinux shared libraries coreutils recommends no packages. coreutils suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
