call numbers having Cutter parts made of several substrings currently
are not sorted correctly. Here are examples:

| itemcallnumber     | cn_source | cn_sort                        |
| 530 F435 1996 v1   | ddc       | 530_F435_199600000000000_V1    |
| 530 F435 1996 v2p1 | ddc       | 530_F435_199600000000000_V2P1  |
| 530 F435 1996 v2p2 | ddc       | 530_F435_199600000000000_V2P2  |

Despite being in the Dewey 530 class, these items are sorted after any
530.xy item (and before any 531, which is OK).

Any hint?

I've been experimenting ways to address this, and may have an option worth testing:

In "Home › Administration › Classification sources" you can specify the "Filing Rule" to apply to each Classification Source. A second table allows you to specify the "Sorting routine" for each Filing Rule.

I found that by changing the Sorting routine from "generic" to "LCC", I got my system to sort properly. You might find this worth testing.
