i'm having a lot of trouble with order_by on foreign keys, or namely,
ManyToMany fields.
here's a simplified version of the code:

# holds info about a test (filename, etc.)
class TestInfo(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    filename = models.CharField(max_length=200, null = True)

# holds info about the execution of test (status, etc.)
class TestResult(models.Model):
    info = models.ForeignKey(TestInfo, related_name = "results")
    revision = models.IntFielf()
    status = models.CharField(max_length = 1, choices =
STATUS_CHOICES)

# holds info about a system that is being tested.
class SystemInfo(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length = 100)
    version = models.FloatField()
    results = models.ManyToManyField(TestResult, related_name =
"systems")
    # a test may be run on several systems and a system
    # may be tested by several tests, so it's a ManyToMany

let t be a TestInfo object and i want to get the latest TestResult of
t,
meaning, the latest revision that was executed on the latest the
latest
system version:

latest = t.results.order_by("-revision", "-systems__version")[0]

but trying to order by systems__version fails miserably.
any ideas? or is it just impossible to order by manytomany fields?
