This has now happened:
- you need to install the pymodis library

See:
- Overview: https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/addons/r.modishtml
- Download: https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/addons/r.modis.download.html
- Import: https://grass.osgeo.org/grass72/manuals/addons/r.modis.import.html

We continue to improve the manual pages in these days.
