I am uncertain where the dependency on sed (or sed-native?) is missing/should be added. In the glib recipe or for autotools class? (this time i looked in master but found no relevant patches.)

I think you're going to find that without a lot of additional work,
packaged-staging isn't going to be helpful beyond you and your
machine.  A lot of the lessons learned in making packaged-staging work
better are found in sstate-cache in oe-core.  The easiest fix here is
to add ASSUME_PROVIDED += "sed-native" to your local.conf / similar so
that sed-native isn't built and your host one is used.
