By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Kristopher 2015-03-16 15:18:08 CDT
In Konqueror, when sorting files alphabetically that have numbers in them, Konqueror does not take into consideration the number of digits a number has, i.e. the single-digit "1" is placed after the double-digit "19" even though human logic dictates that numbers 10 through 19 should come *after* numbers 1 through 9. This gets even worse when triple-digit numbers come into play, in that 1, 10-19, 100-199 are all placed together even when other numbers are present that should clearly separate these.

This isn't specific to 1* numbers, but also includes 2*, 3*, .......

I realize that Unicode/ASCII/etc. doesn't include codes for multi-digit numbers and that this is what causes the incorrect sorting of numbers, however I still believe that there should be some logic included in Konqueror that overrides this and forces the correct sorting.

(I have *not* tested this in Dolphin or other apps that list files, though I wouldn't be surprised if the same bug occurred there)
