GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 578048
sort "by name" shows files in wrong alphanumeric order
Last modified: 2018-05-24 11:49:49 UTC
According to a bug report ( http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=547350#c3 ), nautilus uses glib for sorting filenames, so I thought that glib is the package that should handle this usability bug. I have a list of filenames (images), which use alphanumeric characters in their names. But when I try to sort the files "by name", it shows them in this order: 13437719_8903f96f59_o.jpg 179584429_849c737f48_o.jpg 200396260-001.jpg 200500922-001.jpg 427180864_363a521a3f_b.jpg 1288699637_05815693d8_b.jpg ... etc, here's the image screenshot of nautilus: http://img70.imageshack.us/img70/8084/nautiluswrongsortorder.png However using "ls -1" in command line the files appear properly sorted: $ ls -1 1288699637_05815693d8_b.jpg 13437719_8903f96f59_o.jpg 1468995258_d30e95ef1b_o.jpg 179584429_849c737f48_o.jpg 200396260-001.jpg 200500922-001.jpg 2293045156_bbf1d06a46_b.jpg 2371633439_1c1a327e26_b.jpg 2400320371_325da8d281_o.jpg 2530198045_088931c8be_b_remixed.png 2960052107_598573b960_o.jpg 3068888802_6b6b0a3ea4_o.jpg 427180864_363a521a3f_b.jpg Other information:
