Trac works pretty well. You can configure your own workflows with it, as 
well.

What *I'd* like to find is an on-line bug tracker that lets you suck the 
whole bug (or some subset of it) onto local disk, for off-line work -- 
just like the SCM allows you to. I've been using Ditz in a project 
recently, but that's *too* much off-line, and not enough online; in 
particular, it makes it nearly impossible for anybody but developers to 
file bugs.

Trac's got one of the best issue tracker front-ends I've ever 
encountered, but absolutely no off-line tools, so for the moment I'm 
stuck. But if you want a first-class, well-integrated on-line tool, 
Trac's pretty decent, and the Mercurial integration is pretty good. 
There's no graph log, last I checked, and I think multiple repository 
support is still in the works, but it is free, so it's worth a shot. Oh! 
And there's a plug-in for OpenID authentication, which is really nice!
