       Hello Kai Hendry,

Still Wordpress allows theme modification through its web interface but
it's unusable because of the actual permissions model. More than that,
you can't upload anything for the same reason!

I would suggest to create a "/var/lib/wordpress/" directory to put all
writable data, following the example of the "dokuwiki" package.

On my side I did this (for now):
  drwxrwx--- root  www-data  /var/lib/wordpress/
  drwxrwx--- root  www-data  /var/lib/wordpress/uploads/
  drwxrwx--- root  www-data  /var/lib/wordpress/themes/

And I put links to these directories in
"/usr/share/wordpress/wp-content/". Off course it requires to allow the
web daemon to "FollowSymLinks" from "/usr/share/wordpress/".

We may want to put the full "wp-content" directory in
"/var/lib/wordpress/", but I'm not sure about the security implication...

Anyway, thanks for the wordpress packaging! :-)
