There are no such guarantees, especially not with free software.
The details I previously sent to you (
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/coreutils/2019-10/msg00002.html ) explain
any differences between “sort -V” and debian’s dpkg/apt algorithm, which is
what the mentioned python package implements.
You’ll have to go some work yourself to determine whether these differences
affect your desired outcome.
