Description

Searching for artifacts using the default-search will sort them using a dictionary sort order,
e.g. 0.1, 0.10, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9
In this case 0.10 will not be the newest entry.

Maybe a different sort-algorithm than a plain dictionary sort order could be used? But the problem is, that version-numbers can also contain characters.

This bug was found in Archiva 1.3.1, but i couldn't find any hint in this jira and the changelog.
