Ask YC: Bug tracking software?

#1
What is everyone using for bug/issue tracking software these days? I'm looking for something to run on my own dev server, not a hosted solution. Bonus points for being lightning fast, IRC & SVN integration, and easy to install.

Any links to previous discussions about this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,

I use trac, a management tool that's usually used for open source projects http://trac.edgewall.org/. Admittedly its issue tracking features aren't very advanced, but it does an excellent job of integrating your subversion repository, tickets and a wiki. It's one of the better tools for finding out what happened and why.

I've also had good experience with Trac. If you need sophisticated traditional bug tracking features, it isn't quite all there: you can't assign a bug to more than one version, or more than one component, for example. But its subversion and wiki integration are features I can no longer live without.
