⥠shouldn't take precedence over â .

The ordering is â£, â¦, â¥, â , of course.

Crack. :)

Comment 2 Peter Jones 2005-08-04 22:21:00 UTC
You're a bad man.

I'm seeing mojibake in comment #0 that obscures the joke.  (It appears that the UTF-8-encoded characters were somewhere misinterpreted as ISO-8859-1 and retranslated to UTF-8.)  Here's what I believe the comment should say:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
[root@nostromo i386]# rpm -Uvh pcmciautils-007-1.♠.i386.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:pcmciautils            ########################################### [100%]
[root@nostromo i386]# rpm -Fvh pcmciautils-007-1.♥.i386.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:pcmciautils            ########################################### [100%]

♥ shouldn't take precedence over ♠.

The ordering is ♣, ♦, ♥, ♠, of course.
