I cannot reproduce that bug.

Using '/bin/ed' to provide 'editor'.
lunar:/home/zobel/git/build-area# dpkg -i ed_1.3-2_i386.deb 
(Reading database ... 238108 files and directories currently installed.)

that ought to be wrong. both 0.7-3 and 1.3-2 (at least on i386, i doub't
thats different on other archs) ship the binary as /bin/ed
