The most minimal configuration is what the code in
t/lib/DebbugsTest.pm's create_debbugs_configuration does:
https://salsa.debian.org/debbugs-team/debbugs/-/blob/master/t/lib/DebbugsTest.pm?ref_type=heads#L63

There's a good argument to abstract that out into a
function in Debbugs::Config which can generate a configuration with
enough special hooks for testing.

That said, I think for right now if you want to punt and just fix the
bug and then we can make the fix better later, I'm OK with that.
