Yes!  That's exactly what I want.  Thanks.

The only thing I wonder about now is if I should also be looking deeper, at
bugs against dependencies of the packages junior-* meta packages directly
depend on.  The qa.debian.org/developer.php reports show uninstallable
packages and link to excuses, which in turn will show me problems at that
level.  The bugs.qa.debian.org report doesn't.
