sort accented string

[Laurent]

Hello,

I'm french and I have a small sorting problem with python (and zope's
zcatalog):

In a python shell python, try :

'é' > 'z'

The answer is true. Then if you try

test=['a','b','f','é','z']
print test.sort()

You almost get :

['a','b','f','z','é']

That's not what we want :-)

Any help will be greatly appriciated.

PS : I got the same behaviour with zope's zcatalog during a sort_on request.
Even if I start zope with the correct linux locale (fr_FR).

THX

Laurent.
