Comment # 1 on bug 8935 from
Bug 6251 has been fixed.  That bug pertained to filenames being incorrectly
sorted by the length of the filename instead of by the characters in the name
of the file.

Now for this bug ... what you are seeing is proper ASCII sorting of the
filenames, since the ASCII-assigned numeric value of the '.' character is less
than the ASCII-assigned numeric value of 'a', 'b', or 'c'.  Therefore, "b." and
"c." are less than "aa.", etc.  This is apparently the sort order you get on
Mac OS X 10.8 and GTK+ 2.24.10.

While this may not be the expected and most user-friendly sort order, it's not
a Wireshark-specific bug, so closing as "NOTOURBUG".
