I actually tested this up in database and the result is with admin option when the grantor revokes privilege, dependent grants are not revoked but
with grant option it is. when the grantor revokes privlege, it revokes all the dependent granted privilege.
So the reference manual is correct or this is a bug in Oracle ?
