I'm not sure if this is the same bug or a different one. I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I have a directory containing other directories. They sort correctly with "ls -l". But they show up in Nautilus as:
    20190428_96a11107 <- wrong order
    20190428_1271f6a8
    20190428_4314187e
    20190428_a4b67026
    20190428_a9637c2a
    20190428_bd912fd3
    20190428_c7b6ee8a <- wrong order
    20190428_c408cf3c
    20190428_ec90884e

I am not aware of any hidden special characters in the names. It is easy to reproduce on my machine. Just go to an empty folder and do:
    touch 20190428_1271f6a8
    touch 20190428_4314187e
    touch 20190428_96a11107
    touch 20190428_a4b67026
    touch 20190428_a9637c2a
    touch 20190428_bd912fd3
    touch 20190428_c408cf3c
    touch 20190428_c7b6ee8a
    touch 20190428_ec90884e

They sort correctly with "ls -l", but not with Nautilus.

I haven't tried a more recent version of ubuntu. Should I report this somewhere else?
