When working with a RTL (right-to-left) theme, such as garlandrtl, the version numbers of modules is displayed in an awkward way.

The update_status module defines a special div around the version numbers, and thus there is a trivial fix: http://drupal.org/node/126568.

There is no such a div in the core, and therefore I have opened this bug.

Attached is a patch that adds a proper class to the version numbers, and defines this class as 'direction:ltr'.

Tested and approved. But...
I think that while we're there, we might as well do the same for the Module Name column, since module names are (almost?) always in English, thus ltr.

Not sure we want to link these two together, however, I looked at the code and it looks like the module name does not get translated. If someone can confirm this, I can add this to the patch, otherwise, let's open a different issue for the names thing.

Committed to Drupal 6 and also ready for Drupal 7.

BTW module names are not translated on purpose, with the idea that it is easier to identify a module you just installed, without knowing what crazy translation your language team provided for that. So a new issue on that might indeed be applicable.

There you go: #271826: Module names display incorrectly if direction is set to RTL
