Are there any bug tracking systems written in Python?

There is a nice project-management, task-tracking (problem-tracking)
system based on ZOPE (and hence on Python) out there:

    http://bits.netizen.com.au/Xen/

XEN seems to be a quite interesting tool, really... 
but at time of writing (Dec 2000) the project seems to be dead.
Check http://sourceforge.net/projects/midnightxen/ for a possible
revival. XEN's license is not GPL compatible, because based on the NPL.

There are two others, based on Zope (and thus python):

There are a number of options for those that want to go beyond the basic
debugging tools that come with Python itself, or want more than the
commonly used text editors like emacs or vi: 

Commercial
 
1) http://www.wingide.com/wingide -- Wing IDE provides a graphical
debugger with remote debug capability, source module and class browser,
source editor with autocompletion, syntax hilighting and an emacs mode,
and a project manager.

2) http://www.pythonworks.com -- PythonWorks is a rapid application
development environment with editor, debugger, TkInter-based user
interface layout tools, and deployment manager.
