Sorry, I was too vague about this. Specifically, if I want Debian Jr.
'core' materials that are arcade games, I only need to select:
junior::core and game::arcade
If I want all 'extra' jr arcade games, I select:
junior::extra and game::arcade
That is, by using other, non-junior-specific tags in conjunction with
the three tags junior::core, junior::extra and junior::early, we have
everything we need to give us even more flexibility than metapackages
could give us, more consistency with the rest of Debian, and less burden
of classification on the debian-jr project.
