severity 602738 minor tags 602738 wontfix Thank you for this bug report. I'm a little bit confused with the severity. I can not find a Debian Policy exception where the Debconf question/answer stage can not end in an endless loop. Only if such a restriction exists within the Debian Policy the severity serious should be set.
You can not install bugzilla without a valid configuration. At least MySQL have to run and you need to know the admin account. I got tons of error reports where people did not answer the Debconf question as requested. The user can break the question/answer loop at any time but know that the setup fail. I put in consideration to detect piuparts and disable the setup of bugzilla. The idea behind piuparts is only to check the low-level installation/de-installation but not if bugzilla is working. I've changed the severity to minor because it's only a issue with piuparts but not for real life situations.
