Public bug reported:

The sed 4.8-1 package currently in proposed is failing to migrate due to
a failing test on armhf. The patch added in 4.7-1ubuntu1 is still
required to work around this, and the attached debdiff restores this.

The patch has been applied upstream to gnulib
(https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnulib.git/commit/?id=175e0bc72808d564074c4adcc72aeadb74adfcc6)
but sed upstream has not yet bumped the version of gnulib that it
vendors in (or more precisely has not made a release since bumping its
version of gnulib; 4.8 predates that).

The patch itself simply disables the non-portable tests which is not
exactly ideal, but given it's what upstream's gone with we ought to
follow suit.

** Affects: sed (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Patch added: "sed-migration.debdiff"
