> Hello devs,
>
> I appear to be having some problems with the add on v.sort.points. Two
> issues, potentially bugs:
>
> (1) the module fails if the 'cat' column is not the first attribute in the
> table (i.e. if points have been generated from a database table), returning
> the error:
>
> 'Error in sqlite3_prepare(): duplicate column name: cat'
>
> (2) even if 'cat' is the first column, sorting by an integer column does not
> appear to be sorting point datasets in numeric order. Example from the
> nc_spm location:
>
> v.sort.points input=firestations at PERMANENT output=firestations_sorted
> column=ID
>
> The order of the points based on opening the attribute table, and the
> relationship between the 'ID' column and 'cat' appears to be the same as the
> original dataset, where 'ID' was not in ascending order.
>
> Either I'm doing something wrong or the add on requires some tweaks.
> Otherwise this would be a useful tool.
