Awesome! How can we make it even simpler? Ideas:

* Add a "--dev" flag to checksetup.pl which does the following:

** Implies "--cpanm"
** implies SQlite, and so requires checksetup to be run only once
** Defaults login name to unix username
** defaults password to login name
** Gets realname and email from Git identity, if set, otherwise
   realname from /etc/passwd
** Tells you all this

* Add a ./bugzilla script to the root dir which does
  perl -Ilocal/lib/perl5 bin/plackup -R . app.psgi
  and, if not already true, auto-edits the params to have the right
  urlbase. It might even auto-start a browser on the URL.

So then to install and run Bugzilla, you do:

$ sudo apt-get install git perl-modules build-essential cpanminus
$ git clone https://github.com/bugzilla/bugzilla
$ cd bugzilla
$ ./checksetup.pl --dev
$ ./bugzilla
