When you have filenames containing numbers, the name sorting can be totally wrong. Way to reproduce the bug (Thunar 0.9): create some files with numbers, for example touch 1 10 100 1000 10000 100000 1000000 10000000 On my computer (Ubuntu 8.04.1 and Archlinux up-to-date), the name sorting result is: 1 10 1000000 100 10000000 10000 100000 1000
i created 256 dirs from '00' to 'ff', sort by name order is 0a, 0b, 0c, 00, 0d, 0e, 0f, 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 01 .... Thunar 1.0.1, gentoo amd64
@Nicolas: Your issue should be fixed in master. This is about the same problem as was reported in bug #5359. I'm therefore marking it as a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 5359 ***
