I’m currently working on a major new version of the datatool package. This may take a while. Please be patient. (Experimental version available for testing.)

Description

When using glossaries with sort=def and style=alttreehypergroup, groups are not recognized any more and the output is broken.

Glossaries version: 4.15

This bug was reported on TEX.SX, too (includes images of the expected and actual output): Glossaries: Groups not working

Evaluation

I've put a more detailed response in my answer on TeX.SX, but this is a feature rather than a bug due to the fact that the sort=def key changes the sort key for each entry to a numerical value, so all entries end up in the "Numbers" group. You can get around it by switching to "Option 1" and passing the sort=def to \printnoidxglossary.
