Hi guys,
not sure if this is a pilot error, but it seems to me that gnu sort -n
is broken on at least -STABLE (couldn't test -CURRENT yet).
It somehow does not manifest when using a simple list and sorting on a
specific column, but it always happens to me when using it in
combination with find(1).
% truncate -s10m a; truncate -s5m b; truncate -s800k c
% find a b c -ls|sort -nk7,7
