grip-3.3.1 has the following in its RDEPENDS list
    =sys-libs/db-1*
This dependency is not mentioned in the grip documentation, so I tried building
without it (the only version of db on my system is db-4.2.52).  It builds OK,
and appears to run fine as well.  I noticed there is a previous bug report from
a long time ago (bug #1980) where this dependency was added, but that bug report
contains no explanation as to why db version 1 is needed.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Looking at the sources I can't find reference to libdb so I removed that  
dependency. 
 
Thanks for reporting.
