GNU sort bug?

Mon, 20 Mar 2000 08:59:31 -0800 

I'm using sort (GNU textutils) 2.0, GNU/Linux RedHat 6.1.

I think I've found a bug.

If a file contains this data:

        C,Apple
        B,Fig
        E,Kangaroo
        ,Dog

and I sort it, I would expect:

        ,Dog
        B,Fig
        C,Apple
        E,Kangaroo

but instead I'm getting:

        B,Fig
        C,Apple
        ,Dog
        E,Kangaroo
