Bug-buddy support was not intended for non GNOME.
bug-buddy has been designed with Debian BTS in mind, not Bugzilla (bugzilla
proved to be more usable and GNOME switched over to it since). We don't have
Debian BTS, and we haven't set-up the hacks to it.
I think that the only way to do it properly with bug-buddy would be to add
direct bugzilla support.
