Ben is aware of the packages that match the "affected" predicate. It
seems that predicates the release team uses exclude the packages that
cause the transition. For example, in libcogl12, the "affected"
predicate is:

.depends ~ /libcogl(9|12)|libcogl-pango(0|12)/ & !(.source ~ "cogl")

The last clause explicitly excludes the cogl source package, and
therefore cogl doesn't appear in the transition monitoring page (nor in
its PTS). I don't know why this clause was added.
