Greetings,
I am running Fedora 20 x86_64 with all updates.

These days I am, among many other things, reordering old family pictures scanned in several occasions, by different people.

So I have folders with many, many files named like:

196511-holidays-1.jpg
1968summer.jpg
1961-july-15-birthday.jpg

and so on. The problem is that, while the files are obviously sorted correctly at the prompt when I do ls -l, this does NOT happen in any GUI application I've tried so far: nautilus, gwenview, dolphin... They all couldn't care less that I DO tell them to "sort by name". They keep showing the pictures in some other, NOT alphanumerical order, as in the example above. Which makes it very time consuming to catalog the pictures, of course, but above all makes me wonder if there is something wrong going on.

I've seen around some bug reports of the same "class", like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=169883, but this seems a more serious issue. My file names all start with the 4-digits year, so I can't see how or why a file manager should not sort them correctly by "name".

Any clue? Thanks!

Marco
