Fix the data in the bzr repo to match the data in the CVS repo.
During the CVS imports into Bzr, there were some inconsistencies introduced (mostly that files that were deleted in CVS weren't being deleted in Bzr). So this checkin makes the bzr repo actually consistent with the CVS repo, including fixing permissions of files.

-Bugzilla Quick Start Guide
-==========================
-(or, how to get Bugzilla up and running in 10 steps)
-Christian Reis <kiko@async.com.br>
-
-This express installation guide is for "normal" Bugzilla installations,
-which means a Linux or Unix system on which Apache, Perl, MySQL or PostgreSQL
-and a Sendmail compatible MTA are available. For other configurations, please
-see Section 4 of the Bugzilla Guide in the docs/ directory.
-
-1. Decide from which URL and directory under your webserver root you
- will be serving the Bugzilla webpages.
-
-2. Unpack the distribution into the chosen directory (there is no copying or
- installation involved).
-
-3. Run ./checksetup.pl, look for unsolved requirements, and install them.
- You can run checksetup as many times as necessary to check if
- everything required has been installed.
-
- These will usually include assorted Perl modules, MySQL or PostgreSQL,
- and a MTA.
-
- After a successful dependency check, checksetup should complain that
- localconfig needs to be edited.
-
-4. Edit the localconfig file, in particular the $webservergroup and
- $db_* variables. In particular, $db_name and $db_user will define
- your database setup in step 5.
-
-5. Using the name you provided as $db_name above, create a MySQL database
- for Bugzilla. You should also create a user permission for the name
- supplied as $db_user with read/write access to that database.
-
- If you are not familiar with MySQL permissions, it's a good idea to
- use the mysql_setpermission script that is installed with the MySQL
- distribution, and be sure to read Bugzilla Security - MySQL section
- in the Bugzilla Guide or PostgreSQL documentation.
-
-6. Run checksetup.pl once more; if all goes well, it should set up the
- Bugzilla database for you. If not, return to step 5.
-
- checksetup.pl should ask you, this time, for the administrator's
- email address and password. These will be used for the initial
- Bugzilla administrator account.
-
-7. Configure Apache (or install and configure, if you don't have it up
- yet) to point to the Bugzilla directory. You should enable and
- activate mod_cgi, and add the configuration entries
-
- Options +ExecCGI
- AllowOverride Limit
- DirectoryIndex index.cgi
-
- to your Bugzilla <Directory> block. You may also need
-
- AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
-
- if you don't have that in your Apache configuration file yet.
-
-8. Visit the URL you chose for Bugzilla. Your browser should display the
- default Bugzilla home page. You should then log in as the
- administrator by following the "Log in" link and supplying the
- account information you provided in step 6.
-
-9. Scroll to the bottom of the page after logging in, and select
- "Parameters". Set up the relevant parameters for your local setup.
-
- See section 4.2 of the Bugzilla Guide for a in-depth description of
- some of the configuration parameters available.
-
-10. That's it. If anything unexpected comes up:
-
- - read the error message carefully,
- - backtrack through the steps above,
- - check the official installation guide, which is section 4 in the
- Bugzilla Guide, included in the docs/ directory in various
- formats.
-
-Support and installation questions should be directed to the
-mozilla-webtools@mozilla.org mailing list -- don't write to the
-developer mailing list: your post *will* be ignored if you do.
