Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-17
Followup-For: Bug #374371


The wrong sort order the original reporter of this bug experienced is also true if kernel with version numbers consisting of three parts, coexist with ones with four parted numbers like 2.4.33.1. The output of update-grub looks like this:

Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.33-westend9-p4
Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.33.1-westend9-p4
Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.32-westend9-p4

But it should be:

vmlinuz-2.4.33.1-westend9-p4
vmlinuz-2.4.33-westend9-p4
vmlinuz-2.4.32-westend9-p4
