Summary: Files manager relies on kernel implementation
Original Submission: The file manager uses {open,read,close} dir to display
the files. They are unsorted, that is to say that the
order is determined by the filesystem order. That can lead
to uncoherent display.
I think the files should be associated to some information
in the database to at least determine the order.
HTH.
Guillaume.

Indeed, the issue is significant only for versions. Sorting
alphabetically is not a good fix, because it breaks numbers
sorting (e.g see -n option of sort).

In fact, the idea was to avoid changing anything is the way files are already
managed. And so, to avoid using database.
Frankly, I dont really think that would lead to an really disturbing
"uncoherent display".
Files are displayed as this package -> version -> file.
So, the high risk is to get
popol.rpm
in the top of
popol.tar.gz
instead of
popol.tar.gz
in the top of
popol.rpm
And it doesnt seem to be really problematic.
About versions and packages, it should be classified alphabetically, right.
But I dont think it's interesting to do this using database. It can be done by
PHP.
Using database means that users cant use this feature without using a browser,
and personnally I think that's uncool (I dont - and I dont want to - use
browser to manage files, and I'm probably not the only one).
