Something that also incorporates a wiki might be nice.

Jira and Confluence integrate well, and have the support of a company and large installed base behind them for future development.

There will be resistance if it's not really easy to use.

Joel Spolsky also made a point about formal issue tracker adoption, in that it doesn't have to be all or nothing (Strategy 2) from the get-go.

If they haven't matured out of that old-school kind of approach even today, a little technology may not be sufficient to get them to change their ways fast enough.
