The Old Monk

WWW::Bugzilla was a great help in setting up git-bugzilla integration, but there's a small fix which needs to be applied before it would work with my Bugzilla 3 install.

The problem is that WWW::Mechanize selects the first form on a page by default, and WWW::Bugzilla fails in WWW::Mechanize while setting any field to be updated (with a 'no such field' or 'no field called comment' etc. messages). On my Bugzilla install, there's a small bug search form in the header which makes that happen.

The fix is a single line and has been emailed to the author. Here it is :
