Description Geoffrey S. Knauth 2000-03-21 09:33:21 UTC
I tried to log a bug about `sort' from textutils 2.0, but when I picked
"RedHat Linux," the Version and Component selection lists on the next
buzzilla form were both blank, and bugzilla wouldn't let me enter
`textutils' as Component Text.  So I'm telling you about this, plus I'm
including the original bug about `sort' I was hoping to log the normal way.
-----
I'm using sort (GNU textutils) 2.0, GNU/Linux RedHat 6.1.

I think I've found a bug.

If a file contains this data:

        C,Apple
        B,Fig
        E,Kangaroo
        ,Dog

and I sort it, I would expect:

        ,Dog
        B,Fig
        C,Apple
        E,Kangaroo

but instead I'm getting:

        B,Fig
        C,Apple
        ,Dog
        E,Kangaroo

For the sort bug: get the current version (from rawhide or 6.2beta).

For bugzilla: I can't reproduce it here with lynx and netscape 4.72; are you
using some weird browser that messes up with things?
