I realise Bugzilla is somewhat popular, but it definitely should be
updated for Lenny. Quoting from 
http://www.bugzilla.org/status/2007-08-23.html :

| Upcoming EOL of Bugzilla 2.20
|
| With the release of Bugzilla 3.2, the Bugzilla 2.20.x series will
| reach End Of Life, meaning that there won't be any further bug-fix
| updates, even if critical security issues are discovered.
|
| We recommend that all Bugzilla 2.20 users upgrade to 3.0.1 at their
| earliest convenience. [20]Upgrade instructions are in the Bugzilla
| 3.0 Release Notes.

Cheers,
        Moritz
