This will be fixed on top of bug 33568. If we need a separate patch to backport we should open an other bug report. See bug 33568 comment 16.
Checkbox column on the items table of the catalogue detail page does not appear to be sortable on current master now that bug 33568 was pushed. Is this bug still valid or should we close?
As said in comment 0 this bug report was for backporting purpose. I am happy to close it.
