Recently noticed that the kernels were not showing up in newest
to older in the boot screen after running grub2-mkconfig.
The .7 was being sorted before the .10.
Found a patch to the grub-mkconfig_lib file to correct the sorting.
version_find_latest ()
{
#patched (whole work is done by sort!):
echo $@ | tr ' ' '\n' | sort -Vr | head -1 | cat
#bad code! sorts wrong!
#local a=""
# for i in $@ ; do
# if version_test_gt "$i" "$a" ; then
# a="$i"
#fi
#done
#echo "$a"
}
Then it sorts correctly again. Seems to have been fixed in other
later releases, but not in Fedora 16.
