Package: coreutils Version: 5.97-5.2 Severity: important File: /usr/bin/sort
The following is a snipet of the output from sort with no options (which should sort the entire line): "\x1B[D","cub1","visa50" "\x1BD","cud1","ims_ansi" "\x1BD","cud1","ims_ansi" "\x1BD","cud1","ims_ansi" "\x1BD","cud1","wy99a_ansi" "\x1BD","cud1","wy99_ansi" "\x1BD","ind","ansi77" "\x1BD","ind","iris_ansi" "\x1BD","ind","iris_ansi" "\x1BD","ind","iris_ansi_ap" "\x1BD","ind","iris_color" "\x1BD","ind","iris_color" "\x1BD","ind","mai" "\x1BD","ind","mai" "\x1BD","ind","z29a" "\x1BD","ind","z29a" "\x1BD","ind","z29a" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_kc_uc" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_kc_uc" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_nkc_bc" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_nkc_bc" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_nkc_uc" "\x1BD","ind","z29a_nkc_uc" "\x1B[D","kbs","dg460_ansi" Sort is ignoring the "[" character and producing incorrectly sorted output. And as another bug report mentioned, sort really needs an ASCII order. But even without ASCII collating order, every character should be significant unless explictly stated otherwise. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages coreutils depends on: ii libacl1 2.2.42-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libselinux1 1.32-3 SELinux shared libraries coreutils recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
