  Packages are not required to declare any dependencies they have on
  other packages which are marked `Essential' (see below), and should
  not do so unless they depend on a particular version of that package.

The bug report speaks about sed and grep, imp have for both of them a
versioned depend, so this seems not to be a bug.

Cheers.
