Order versions menu on this bug tracker

[Dan Jacobson]

The Version drop down menu below when entering ths bug has versions jumbled out of numerical order.

I've removed some versions that had no date, so that looks better now. The sorting is done by release date.

I still see this. I think you fixed the other version selector but not this one.

<option selected="selected" value="unspecified">unspecified</option>
<option value="svn-trunk">svn-trunk</option>
<option value="2.1.0">2.1.0</option>
<option value="2.0.2">2.0.2</option>
<option value="1.11.4">1.11.4</option>
<option value="2.0.1">2.0.1</option>
<option value="1.11.3">1.11.3</option>
<option value="2.0.0">2.0.0</option>
<option value="1.11.2">1.11.2</option>
<option value="1.11.1">1.11.1</option>
<option value="1.11.0">1.11.0</option>
<option value="1.10.1">1.10.1</option>
<option value="1.10.0">1.10.0</option>
<option value="1.9.2">1.9.2</option>
<option value="1.9.1">1.9.1</option>
<option value="1.9.0">1.9.0</option>...

What's wrong with the above list ? It is the version list from the most recent release to the oldest one. I don't intend to do further action on this ticket, and I don't think I could do better (this is Trac behaviour). Closing again. I'd appreciate if you didn't re-open it... Thanks

This is all you need. Perfect results!

$ man sort
 -V, --version-sort
 natural sort of (version) numbers within text
