actually, they never were sorted alphabetically.
or well, they were, but in reverse order (so Zexy sorted before Slip, which sorted before Else).

this was somewhat bogus: https://github.com/pure-data/deken/issues/230

however, as described (well: alluded) in the issue, i don't think that an alphabetical sort makes much sense anyhow.

since 0.7, deken therefore sorts libraries by their latest releases (actually the last upload date). that's bsaed on the assumption that the newest packages are of more interest.

in the above example, else (last upload 2020-12-28) sorts before zexy (last upload 2020-05-29), which sorts before slip (last upload 2019-04-28)

there's a bug in 0.7.1, where the upload-date of a version of the package of a non-compatible architecture would affect the sorting of the compatible packages, but that is fixed in current development version.


I guess that is not an issue with the deken-plugin, but (probably) with
the server. I mention it anyway.


actually, the sorting is done in the plugin.
