Description Balazs Melikant 2005-09-10 19:21:24 UTC
Everything is on the shot I attached; the packages are sorted after their names,
yast-transfers should be before or rather _after_ the yast-trans-* packages, but
surely not in the middle...

The maintainer should decide... reassigned.
Comment 3 Lukas Ocilka 2005-09-12 12:43:50 UTC
Seems to be a Qt problem of the packagemanager.
Sorting might be ignoring hyphens in strings.

trans-es
transfer (trans-fer)
trans-fi

The bug description does not contain any useful information, so if the subject 
gets changed, this bug will be confusing for everybody. For future bugs, 
please read this:

Comment 5 Stefan Hundhammer 2005-09-13 20:55:07 UTC
It's an alpha sort according to the current locale. In some locales, special 
characters like a dash change the sorting order, in some they do not. If the 
dash does not have any influence (as seems to be the case here), 
"yast2-transfer" indeed will be sorted in the middle of some "yast2-trans-*" 
packages. 
 
IMHO that name "yast2-transfer" was an unlucky choice.

Dear #4!
In case you would have an improved and more descriptive idea for the above
subj., please change it accordingly! (Anyway, one would stay in contact with
_very_ few people, e.g. while ignoring empty/dummy subjects...)
Independently how this bug is tagged, the feature is still present & confirmed;
being picky just simply doesn't solve this. You probably know, that it's
general, and "yast2-transfers" is not the only package like that; at least on
the Hungarian locale.
Comment 7 Lukas Ocilka 2005-09-15 09:40:17 UTC
Werner: Aplhabetical sorting in Hungaryan language probably ignores hyphens.
You're the assignee of the Base-system. Please, what do you think of it? Is is a
correct behavior, just a feature or a bug? Could it be fixed/enhanced not to
ignore that character?

Thanks
Comment 8 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-09-15 10:05:58 UTC
The sorting is given with LC_COLLATE=hu_HU ... if this
sorting results in the image of attachment id=49525 then
this is correct.
