Testfile to demonstrate behaviour

Problem description: 
Calc sorts columns the wrong way

Steps to reproduce:
There is an error in sorting columns in calc.

How to test:
Create a spread sheet similar to this

   C A D B F E
R1   a d
R2       b   e
R3 c       f

Mark the columns labled C, A...E
Sort the columns ascending

Expected behavior:

   A B C D E F
R1 a     d
R2   b     e
R3     c     f

Current behavior:

   C A D B F E
R1 c       f
R2   a d
R3       b   e

Can you please test with 3.6.4.1 or 3.6.4.2 because they should be fixed
there.

Q: How can such a regression happen? Any ideas or explanations?

Calc has about 1 million lines of own source code + several more million
lines of shared source code. And how much time did you spend yourself
testing master to check for regressions.

Marking as fixed as I think it is fixed in 3.6.4.1 and therefore in the
3.6.4 release. Reopen if it is not fixed there.

First I am pretty sure that not all of the 1 million lines deal with
sorting. Second, in my development projects we used test suites to
prevent from regression and third there are statistical methods to
identify areas of unstable code based on previous bug reports.

Assuming that all this is in place here as well, I was wondering what
could be the cause of those regressions. If you had an idea I could
direct some research effort into how this can be improved. Maybe we can
discuss this on a different channel (mail?)

Title:
  [Upstream] Calc mis-sorts left to right (sort columns)

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:  Ubuntu 12.10
  Release:      12.10

  2) apt-cache policy libreoffice-calc
  libreoffice-calc:
    Installed: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4
    Candidate: 1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu4
    Version table:

       1:3.6.2~rc2-0ubuntu3 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main i386 Packages

  3) What is expected to happen in Calc via a terminal:
  cd ~/Desktop && wget 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1082449/+attachment/3442313/+files/test.xls
 && localc --nologo test.xls

  highlight columns B through G -> Data -> Sort... -> Options tab under
  Direction click radio button Let to right (sort columns) -> uncheck
  checkbox Range contains row labels -> tab Sort Criteria -> drop down
  Sort key 1 click Row 1 -> radio buton Ascending -> button OK and the
  order is sorted as noted in the file Expected.

  4) What happens instead is it sorts as noted in the file Result.

  + Same problem reproducible in:
  Microsoft Windows Vista Business x86
  6.0.6002 Service Pack 2 Build 6002
  Version 3.6.3.2 (Build ID: 58f22d5)

  but issue has WORKAROUND if you run sort twice consecutively.

  WORKAROUND: Use Gnumeric.

  apt-cache policy gnumeric

  WORKAROUND: Use Excel via WINE.
