You should have a look at Trac (http://trac.edgewall.org/) and
roundup (http://roundup.sourceforge.net/).

Both are written in Python and provide excellent issue tracking.
They differ a bit in design and approach to issue tracking, so
you will likely need to investigate a bit further before you decide.

Both are easy to extend and adapt to whatever needs you have.
