I'm not sure if this is the same bug or a different one. I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I have a directory containing other directories. They sort correctly with "ls -l". But they show up in Nautilus as: 20190428_96a11107 <- wrong order 20190428_1271f6a8 20190428_4314187e 20190428_a4b67026 20190428_a9637c2a 20190428_bd912fd3 20190428_c7b6ee8a <- wrong order 20190428_c408cf3c 20190428_ec90884e
I am not aware of any hidden special characters in the names. It is easy to reproduce on my machine. Just go to an empty folder and do: touch 20190428_1271f6a8 touch 20190428_4314187e touch 20190428_96a11107 touch 20190428_a4b67026 touch 20190428_a9637c2a touch 20190428_bd912fd3 touch 20190428_c408cf3c touch 20190428_c7b6ee8a touch 20190428_ec90884e They sort correctly with "ls -l", but not with Nautilus. I haven't tried a more recent version of ubuntu. Should I report this somewhere else? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/322271 Title: Sorting by name doesn't work well with digits or special chars To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/322271/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
