Just for reference, I solved this one via

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(add-hook 'package-menu-mode-hook
             (lambda ()
               (forward-word)
               (Buffer-menu-sort)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

sorry for the noise.
