Sorry,
sortedlist = sorted(mylist , key=lambda elem: "%s %s" % (elem['name'],
LooseVersion(elem['version'])), reverse=True)
This is what I was trying but LooseVersion() was not sorting version numbers
like I thought it would. You will notice that Chrome version "40.0.2214.111" is
higher than "40.0.2214.91" but in the end result it's not sorting it that way.
Thanks,
Charlie
