Details

Description:
sort utility version 7.5 should support option -h (--human-numeric-sort) but it does not work.

Additional info:
I scanned through the abs package and did a quick rebuild of the package without the coreutils-i18n.patch and it works as expected.


Steps to reproduce:
cd var/abs/core/coreutils
du -h * | sort -h
104K coreutils-i18n.patch
16K coreutils-pam.patch
4,0K PKGBUILD
4,0K coreutils-6.10-configuration.patch
4,0K coreutils-7.5-utimensat.patch
4,0K coreutils.install
4,0K su
8,0K coreutils-uname.patch

but should give:

4,0K PKGBUILD
4,0K coreutils-6.10-configuration.patch
4,0K coreutils-7.5-utimensat.patch
4,0K coreutils.install
4,0K su
8,0K coreutils-uname.patch
16K coreutils-pam.patch
104K coreutils-i18n.patch
