This is normal: tables have to be associated with a database somewhere, 
but only with one database. The corresponding tables on all other 
replicated databases are checked on startup. Which database the tables 
are associated with does not really matter.

It should be inspecting both sides, but those messages may be at a lower 
debug level than you are using. As a general principle, when things 
go wrong, lower the debug level to verbose and then to debug, for a 
clearer (and verbose) picture of what is happening:

$ bucardo set log_level=verbose

Well, the sync should fire off once Bucardo starts up, *unless* the sync 
is set to ping=false. Try a manual kick to see if anything happens:

$ bucardo kick sync mysync 0

That plus a debug log_level should get us a little further into 
the problem.
