Does apt-listbugs consider the "affects" field? Probably I'm wrong but
it seems that it doesn't. Many people got almost unusable desktops
without any warning despite the fact this bug had been reported
already. You upgrade one package and crash another, this is exactly
what "affects" is for.
I think this is a really good point of possible improvement. Anybody
mind if I create a wishlist on apt-listbug?

$ apt-listbugs -s important list xserver-xorg-core | grep 642757
$ apt-listbugs -s important list nvidia-graphics-drivers | grep 642757
 #642757 - severe lag and high cpu usage when using non-free nvidia
driver with Xserver 1.11.1
