Hoary - Latest updates gone screwy?

[Maximilian Gerlach]

Just in case it doesn't work, or you wan't to install something else in 
the time between (The devs have my full faith ;).), copy any other file
from /usr/share/info/ over sed.info (nano.info.gz, for example).
Then, after an apt-get -f install, sed installs flawlessly.

Greets,
Maxi
