Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux In the collection and context browsers, albums starting with a date in international standard date format (YYYY-MM-DD) are not sorted correctly. e.g. an album titled '2006-03-16: Live at the Metro' will be placed higher up on the list than an album titled '2006-03-24: Live at the Metro'. Albums are supposed to sort the other way around.
I'm running a recent SVN checkout BTW.
I don't understand why this is not correct. You want the newer ones higher on the list? Why?
Because that's the way albums are sorted in the music browser, newest at the top, oldest at the bottom. Currently, albums are sorted inconsistently. For example, (order of release in brackets): 2006 - 2006-03-16: Live at the Metro (4) 2006 - 2006-03-24: Live at the Metro (5) <--- NEWEST ALBUM 2005 - Album (3) 2004 - Another Album (2) 2003 - Yet Another Album (1)
Amarok 1.4.x is in bugfix-only mode as development is focused on Amarok 2. Unfortunately your bug will very likely not get fixed, as the risk of regressions is too high and the Amarok developers do not have the resources for it. Thank you for your report though. Please don't hesitate to report new bugs should you have any problems with Amarok 2 once it is released.
