           Summary: Contacts cannot be sorted by names other than "Full
                    Name"
           Product: kaddressbook
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: picobyte at gmx.com
                CC: tokoe at kde.org


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0) 
OS:                Linux

Currently, the only way to sort contacts by their name is to select the "Full
Name" column, since others such as "Last Name" don't exist anymore. The only
way to sort contacts by their last name would be to display them as "LastName,
FirtName", however, this is impracticable, since it would also change the names
appearance in e. g. outgoing emails.
Additionally, it is possible to select different display styles for the name of
each contact. In such cases it is impossible to have the contacts sorted in a
meaningful way since sorting by first and last name is mixed.

Reproducible: Always
