WordPress is a Bit Hooped

Since the upgrade to Etch, WordPress is a bit hooped. All the uploaded content (themes, plugins, images) were being stored under /usr/share which was not being backed up, so all that is gone. Also, it seems that when you login, you get the "upgrade your wordpress database" prompt and it gets a bit messed up. Images (and the images are there anyhow) and Pages show up as blog posts instead (crappy). And the themes seem to be totally broken. And we don't have any links.

It would seems that WordPress's bastard combination of database and file-based storage has gone a little haywire.

Yikes!
