reopen 373704
thanks

Version: 1:1.1.3-2

Hi,

It doesn't seem to be fixed:

$ sort -k5 -t/ -n
/usr/lib/finish-install.d/99reboot
/usr/lib/prebaseconfig.d/50brltty
^D
/usr/lib/finish-install.d/99reboot
/usr/lib/prebaseconfig.d/50brltty

While it would be expected to see 50brltty coming before 99reboot.

Samuel
