Alphabetical index is not in natural sort order

[henriyli]

At which URL did you encounter the problem?

http://finto.fi/yso/fi/index/T

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Scroll to the bottom of the listing
2. Wait for additional results

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected to get a natural sort order for the listing. I'm seeing š-character at the end of the list. For example: tšekin kieli comes after töyhtöhyyppä.

What browser did you use? (eg. Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Internet explorer)

Firefox

The sorting is done in the sparql query. Since the results are limited and then offset in the second query sorting the results afterwards isn't really an option.

ORDER BY LCASE(IF(BOUND(?alabel), STR(?alabel), STR(?label)))

I'm not sure what we should do here. After the results are completely loaded (after the second query) the sorting could be done in javascript but that doesn't fix the first set of results that have been limited.

I asked about this on the Jena users' mailing list: http://jena.markmail.org/thread/v2bvsnsza5ksl2cv

This turns out to be difficult. It would require changes to Jena so that it would sort language-specific collation.

Opened a JIRA issue on the Jena side: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JENA-1313

@osma can this one be closed too now? Or do we have to wait for the deployment and confirmation that it's working as expected?

Seems to work very well now. Thanks!
