Package: bugzilla3
Version: 3.6.2.0-4.6

I changed the admin email address through the web interface:
Old value: [email protected]
New value: [email protected]

The next day and every day since then, the cron has failed:

/etc/cron.daily/bugzilla3:
The name [email protected] is not a valid username. Either you
misspelled it, or the person has not registered for a Bugzilla account.
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/bugzilla3 exited with return code 255




I notice the old value is cached in /var/lib/bugzilla3/data/answerfile

I changed it there manually and then ran the cron script successfully.

However, it appears that file is autogenerated.  Running
/usr/share/bugzilla3/contrib/dumpanswerfile puts back the wrong email
address (it obtains the address from the debconf database)

I then tried

  dpkg-reconfigure bugzilla3

and it appears to try running a lot of other scripts and then fails with
an error about failing to contact the database.

Maybe I should have just manually tweaked the value in the debconf
database or do all those other setup scripts really need to be run to
change the admin email address?
