Binary package hint: software-center
Software Center version 4.0.1
We currently sort reviews in Software Center's details view based on upstream version number of the package, followed by "usefulness" of the review as voted by users, and lastly by date of the review. With the version comparison, reviews for previous upstream versions are pushed later in the list and are tagged with the line "This review was written for a previous version of <packagename> (Version: <upstream version number>)".
For some packages, however, the sorting by usefulness for a given upstream package version is incorrect. For an example of this, see the attached screenshot that shows the list of reviews for the Inkscape package and note that the review by "dreamsare4living" with a usefulness of "3 out of 3" is incorrectly located *above* the review by "Erik B. Anderson" with a usefulness of "4 out of 4". Instead, the reviews should be sorted from highest usefulness to lowest for any given upstream version.
