Issue #107: `rpmdev-sort` | Null effect - rpmdevtools

rpmdevtools v.: 9.6

Hello. As noticeable the tool has no effect.

$ rpm -q kernel | rpmdev-sort
kernel-6.2.9-300.fc38.x86_64
kernel-6.2.10-300.fc38.x86_64
kernel-6.2.11-300.fc38.x86_64

Correct output expected, thus packages arranged by decreasing version number; illustrated output:

kernel-6.2.11-300.fc38.x86_64
kernel-6.2.10-300.fc38.x86_64
kernel-6.2.9-300.fc38.x86_64

Why do you expect the packages to be sorted in decreasing order? Usually, the standard order is increasing:

$ { echo 5; echo 3; echo 4; echo 1; echo 2; } | sort -n 
1
2
3
4
5
