Sounds like someone's doing an alphanumeric sort on numbers.

unicorn:~$ printf '%s\n' 1 2 3 11 12 13 | sort
1
11
12
13
2
3

It could be a result of filename globbing, e.g. /dev/sda[0-9]* which
would give that kind of ordering.

In any case, this isn't a Devuan mailing list.  If you've reported a
bug to Debian, then you should have the bug number, and the URL to
its web page.  If you've reported it to Devuan, then we can't help.
