Sorry, I have been looking at the end of the list, where every packagename starts with lib, and the items were sorted by the last part of the packagename, but indeed, I could find package 'ri1.9.1' before 'libhd....'. The code [1] also states this: first try sorting by display name, which (for apps which don't have a desktop file) is the first line of the description from the .control file, and fall back to sorting by packagename.
