 Thanks and my apologies -- I suspected something like that but was unable
 to figure it out.

 (I did something really wrong which appears to work, however: copied epsg
 from another GRASS 7.4.1 precompiled bundle installation from the same
 source I had on the same machine.)

 I now see it in release notes for proj-6.0.0 that all CRS stuff in the
 proj.db SQLite3 database file:
 https://proj.org/news.html#id41

 I wonder why the bundle was built with an incompatible proj-6 libary -- it
 that going to break a lot of GRASS functionality other than the missing
 epsg file?

 Should I close the bug as it is apparently not a bug?
