  Trigger specifications are of the form:

  \verbatim
-    %trigger{un|in|postun} [[-n] <subpackage>] [-p <program>] -- <trigger>
+    %trigger{un|in|postun} [[-n] SUBPKGSUFFIX] [-p PROGRAM] -- TRIGGER
  \endverbatim

-<trigger> portion is syntactically equivalent to a "Requires"
+TRIGGER portion is syntactically equivalent to a "Requires"
