You did see some emails about this.

The plugin was removed, GRASS upgraded. When a new version of GRASS gets
added to the repo the main QGIS package has to be rebuilt for the
qgis-grass-plugin to match. That hasn't happened yet.

I'm not sure if there's an option with Launchpad to force rebuild of
QGIS whenever GRASS gets uploaded. Forwarding to the Ubuntugis group.
