setup already has a tracker, using the official sourceware bugzilla.
  http://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/
used rarely

Product cygwin - Component setup.exe
  http://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?product=cygwin&component=setup.exe

I have no idea how one can interface bugzilla or any other tracker to
our package - maintainer list:
