Plugin file filtering/sorting of versions is incorrect. Given Problem: Copy two versions of the same plugin (e.g. com.yourcompany.yourplugin_1.0.9 and com.yourcompany.yourplugin_1.0.10) in the same folder. The plugin import selection dialog shows only version 1.0.9. This probably because the filter shows only the newest version. But 1.0.9 is older than 1.0.10. I would expect that 1.0.10 is shown instead of 1.0.9. (Correct me if I'm wrong) Reproduce: File > Import/Export > External Plug-ins and Fragments > Next See Attachment for two almost empty testplugins

Actually there is nothing wrong with showing all versions of a plugin. It would be convenient to display them with its bundle state (see About -> Configuration Details).

Yes, please add the checkbox and we will call it a day. It should be checked by default. When unchecked, you'll see everything. Thanks Bartosz! We can try to get this in for M4.
Created attachment 84185 [details] checkbox added filter works only on foud plug-ins list. waiting for suggestions, I think that space between should be smaller but this implementation was only chance to not modify other classes

Created attachment 84360 [details] org.eclipse.pde.ui.patch I cleaned up the patch a bit. I reworded the label along with adjusting the layout. I also made sure that the new button didn't suffer from amnesia (ie., use dialog settings). Thanks for the patch Barotz, this will be useful for people when dealing with multiple versions of plug-ins.
