I wanted to get Bugzilla on CPAN but making the whole installation process really work is not that easy. Max, the Bugzilla lead is afraid that people will try to install it from CPAN and they will just get complains on broken installations. So I suggested to upload Bugzilla to CPAN and replace "make install" with a message that points to the currently working direction. Then gradually try to make sure the whole installation process can work via CPAN as well. Since then I am not sure any more as apparently they currently include the CVS directory in their tarball in order to allow people to upgrade via CVS. Anyway, thanks for the response Gabor
