Title: Sort order is bizarre, and can not be changed Status in GLib: Confirmed Status in glib2.0 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-desktop3 package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Create some test files as follows: $ touch 000001000010-0.jpg 000001000010-A.jpg 000001A00010-0.jpg 000003BBF000-0.jpg 00003bA1A000-0.jpg 00003BD22000-0.jpg 0000A4AC3000-0.jpg 000100001 000100001.jpg 000200001 View them at the command line and in Nautilus: $ ls -1 000001000010-0.jpg 000001000010-A.jpg 000001A00010-0.jpg 000003BBF000-0.jpg 00003bA1A000-0.jpg 00003BD22000-0.jpg 0000A4AC3000-0.jpg 000100001 000100001.jpg 000200001 $ nautilus . ls sorts files as one might expect. It is not case sensitive (unless you use a case sensitive locale, e.g. LANG=C), but sorts alphabetically. Nautilus sorts the files in a bizarre order, regardless of which locale is used. Weird behaviours include: * Longer but otherwise equal filenames sort before shorter ones * Sometimes ignores runs of zeros, but not punctuation * Seems to detect runs of digits and sort them at the end The actual behaviour is very complex and difficult to predict, though it must follow some internal logic. The end result is that files don't sort in any reasonable order. This also impacts some other applications, such as Eye of Gnome. Others, like Transmission, respect locale.
