After all the complaints about bugzilla I thought it was time to
suggest an alternative: One that is very basic but also quite
functional.

Lets give it a try.

Its not complete yet. On the server side gnats is needed to make a
database of all reported bugs. Sendbug is the client-side.

I ripped this software from OpenBSD were it performs excellent.

Summary     : Sendbug is the bsd tool to report bugs
Description :

sendbug is a tool used to submit problem reports (PRs) to a central
support site. sendbug invokes an editor on a problem report template
(after trying to fill in some fields with reasonable default values).
When you exit the editor, sendbug sends the completed form to the
Problem Report Management System GNATS) at a central support site.  At
the support site, the PR is assigned a unique number and is stored in
the GNATS database according to its category and submitter-id. GNATS
automatically replies with an acknowledgement, citing the category and
the PR number
