With a properly matched quality drill bit and plug cutter, glues are not required unless the bung is excessively thin. A bit of varnish to help is fine, in many cases dry fitting works just as well if the hole is deep enough (say 1/4" or so).
Subsequent removal is much easier and cleaner if no glue is used.
