It is an independently maintained external dependency. We don't have the
man-power to keep all external dependencies up to date within the grass
source code. (track all bug fixes, updates, etc) It is up to the binary
package maintainers to depend on/include/or suggest those.

It's in the File ->Import->vector map menu.

(v.* are for vectors, r.* for raster modules, etc)
