    Which Linux distro to run bugzilla?

    At work, we have a need to log the bugs of a system we're developping and so after doing a bit of reading up, I was going to give Bugzilla a try.

    However, although it can run under Windows, I think I'd rather install it in its "natural" Linux environment. But I have little experience with multiple Linux distros.

    So looking for something small and efficient - initially, will be running on a low-spec old PC for testing.
    Only thing that is required is the set of prerequisites (MySQL, Perl, web server, etc). Other requirements would be possible FTP server, emal SMTP server...

    How small and simple can I go? Which distro would you recommend? I can't seem to find any particular guidance on bugzilla's website, presumably because any distro will do?

    Thanks

    Likewise with Fedora (just checked - Bugzilla is in the repository) but Bugzilla is such a ubiquitous program, most distros will have a package pre-compiled for it.
