sorting on space gives unexpected behaviour with sort 6.10
Hello, When trying to sort input that has spaces in it I am getting unexpected behaviour. When using the inputfile: 8 3 7 7 2 4 6 3 6 14 3 10 8 6 2 9 5 10 10 1 1 14 1 3 14 4 5 5 3 7 Trying to sort this input gives: $ cat in.txt | sort -t' ' -n -k1n -k2n -k3n 5 3 7 6 3 6 7 2 4 8 3 7 8 6 2 10 1 1 14 1 3 14 4 5 9 5 10 14 3 10 I would have expected the output to be different, the 9 5 10 line ought to be before the line starting with the ten. This bug can be bypassed by replacing the spaces with another character like the semicolon: $ cat in.txt | tr ' ' ':' | sort -t':' -n -k1n -k2n -k3n | tr ':' ' ' 5 3 7 6 3 6 7 2 4 8 3 7 8 6 2 9 5 10 10 1 1 14 1 3 14 3 10 14 4 5 $ sort --version sort (GNU coreutils) 6.10 Copyright ?? 2008 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 According to Dirk-Jan Faber on 6/4/2008 6:29 AM: | Hello, | | When trying to sort input that has spaces in it I am getting unexpected behaviour. When using the inputfile: Not a bug. Your problem is that you aren't specifying the correct keys. | | Trying to sort this input gives: | $ cat in.txt | sort -t' ' -n -k1n -k2n -k3n Useless use of cat. | | I would have expected the output to be different, the 9 5 10 line ought to be before the line starting with the ten. You are requesting the first key start at the first field, treated numerically, and extending through the end of the line. What you wanted was to specify the first key as numeric, but ending at the first field. Also, since you specified -n globally, you don't need to repeat it for the keys: sort -t' ' -n -k1,1 -k2,2 -k3,3 in.txt | This bug can be bypassed by replacing the spaces with another character like the semicolon: | $ cat in.txt | tr ' ' ':' | sort -t':' -n -k1n -k2n -k3n | tr ':' ' ' Another useless use of cat (hint - tr ' ' ':' in.txt is more efficient than cat in.txt | tr ' ' ':'). The reason this worked around your problem is that ':' is greater than '9', but ' ' is less than '0', when the rest of the line is tacked on to the end of your sort key. | $ sort --version | sort (GNU coreutils) 6.10 Consider upgrading - the latest stable version is 6.12. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!

We do not know anything about those applications. We are unable to help you here.

I'll hazard a guess, and suppose you (huma) might possibly be talking about Ubuntu's Update Manager? In that case, I might suggest you use your IRC client (look in your Applications menu for Internet - X Chat) to ask on the #ubuntu channel. Please be patient, as it is volunteer-run, and the volume of questions there are quite high.
