I'm not sure if this is the same bug or a different one. I am using ubuntu
14.04 LTS. I have a directory containing other directories. They sort correctly
with "ls -l". But they show up in Nautilus as:
20190428_96a11107 <- wrong order
20190428_1271f6a8
20190428_4314187e
20190428_a4b67026
20190428_a9637c2a
20190428_bd912fd3
20190428_c7b6ee8a <- wrong order
20190428_c408cf3c
20190428_ec90884e
I am not aware of any hidden special characters in the names. It is easy to
reproduce on my machine. Just go to an empty folder and do:
touch 20190428_1271f6a8
touch 20190428_4314187e
touch 20190428_96a11107
touch 20190428_a4b67026
touch 20190428_a9637c2a
touch 20190428_bd912fd3
touch 20190428_c408cf3c
touch 20190428_c7b6ee8a
touch 20190428_ec90884e
They sort correctly with "ls -l", but not with Nautilus.
I haven't tried a more recent version of ubuntu. Should I report this
somewhere else?

Title:
Sorting by name doesn't work well with digits or special chars
Status in Nautilus:
Confirmed
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: nautilus
On my local disk there is a folder with the following contents:
stefan@ubuntu:~/Dokumente/*/*/*/FLASCHEN_15cm$ ls
0,2LMW 0,33LMW 0,5LMW 0,5LMWPET 1,0LEWPET 1,5LEWPET
I did not include the full path for legal reasons, since it includes
names of my customers and brand names. Instead of these, I put * to
indicate another subdirectory.
However, when I display this folder in nautilus sorting alphabetically
by file name, the resulting order is:
0,2LMW 0,5LMW 0,5LMWPET 0,33LMW 1,0LEWPET 1,5LEWPET
