Seems like a specific issue with labels:

@MichaelMure
Please, could you give me some kind of intro to this? I'll try to explore that.

Roughly what's happening is that the importer of the gitlab bridge is doing a bunch of requests to read the remote state of a gitlab ticket, and try to execute the same changes in git-bug. Included in those changes are label changes (https://github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug/blob/master/bridge/gitlab/import.go#L296-L318). Something is going wrong in there as the importer is trying to add a empty string label on a bug. The core of git-bug is validating the data and refusing to do so.

So, the big question is why is there an empty string label. Once you have figured that out, the fix should be easy-ish.
