Thanks. I reproducible in Lucid.
Marking as triaged/low

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: synaptic
  
  System: Ubuntu 8.10, Synaptic 0.62.1ubuntu10
  
  Issue: Explicit sorting is lost when a package is marked.
  
- To reproduce:
+ :: HOW TO REPRODUCE ::
  - launch Synaptic
- - sort by Package (or any column)
- - select a package to install
- - sort criteria are lost and package list is resorted
+ - enter a keyword in the quick search box (e.g synap)
+ - sort by a column (e.g Package)
+ - Mark the first package for installation (or unmark)
  
- If one is interested in marking related packages that have the same
- Package (name) prefix, it's convenient to sort by Package and click down
- the list. A workaround is to select (highlight) package rows with
- control-click, then mark the selected packages at once, e.g., with
- Package > Mark for Installation (or C-I, or button-3 clicking).
+ Result:
+ Sort criteria are lost and package list is resorted
+ 
+ :: LATEST AFFECTED VERSION ::
+ synaptic:
+   Installed: 0.63.1ubuntu1
+
