My impression is that the 'current' version of grip (3.x) is (was) 
called grip, and the older non-gnome version was called grip2 because it 
is Version 2.x. The README for grip2 agrees with this notion where it 
says "This is an older version of Grip that does not require GNOME. If 
you're looking for a modern version of Grip, see the package "grip""
