So entries in package.keywords should just have the ~ in front of them?
No point in using other boolean operations in the package.keywords file?

There's a point to everything. You need to use whatever suits what you want to do.

 ~:  This version and all revision bumps of it.
 =:  This version.
 >:  Higher than this version.
 <:  Lower than this version.
 >=: This and higher versions.
 <=: This and lower versions.

Note that "revision bumps" are not higher versions.  For example:

 ~some-category/foo-3.0.10

will match foo-3.0.10, foo-3.0.10-r1, foo-3.0.10-r2 and all "-rN" versions of it, but will *not* match foo-3.0.11 nor 3.0.9. Just 3.0.10 and all revisions of it.
