Hello,

I discovered a bug in the sort()-method for sequences.

I run the following skript on Jython 2.2.1 and Python 2.5:

filename1="e:\\daten\\slsrpt\\OUT\\asciitest_slsrpt\\slsrpt4562.txt"

f = open(filename1, "r")

lines = f.readlines()

f.close()

lines.sort()

f = open("bug_jy_sort_test.txt", "w")

f.writelines(lines)

f.close()

I compared the written file with diff and get that line 903 has a difference. The file written with Jython contains a line a second time and has dropped the line that should be in that position. 

The output of the diff-command is:

$ diff bug_jy_sort_test.txt_2_2_1 bug_jy_sort_test.txt
903c903
< 200;73E;4047700000004;4314125000002;0000099;4314122749881;;4047700002756;;0257158;;;;ALP. COLA-WEIZEN  4X6X0,3;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;1;STK;;;;;;;;;;;;;;01.06.2007;;30.06.2007;;;;;;;;

The problem is, I cannot provide the whole file as it contains confidential data. It has 1148 lines and its size is 202654 bytes.

The bug is not in jython 2.1.
