(as opposed to 'mustnothave')
Oops, sorry, yes.
Note that pkgsync is a shell script (pkgsync2 might change that, though), so
you don't have to strace to find out what it does :-)
I always like to find /usr/share/doc/pkgname/examples - that's the best
help for me. :-)
Mm. I'll keep the bug open, so I won't forget to get around to it.

/etc/pkgsync/{musthave,mayhave,mustnothave} (yes, /etc/pkgsync is a
directory) are just newline-separated lists of packages. You have a good
point, though -- the documentation could be a lot more explicit about it.
