That must comes from bad Debconf keys handling. I have to investigate on
that.

Thanks for reporting that error. I updated the checksetup.pl script to
avoid such a problem. Moreover, in the Debian shape, the related code
has nothing to do here, so that's easy to fix.

Great. That's a good start.

Stay tuned then, I might be interested in using the SVN repository:
svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-bugzilla/trunk/bugzilla-2.18
