Today I finally upgraded from wordpress 2.6.5.
I just love Gentoo, for doing stuff like this. Before you start you must backup, your database and save all files that were not standard, like wp-config.php! After you have done this, it is as easy as “emerge -u wordpress” and install the new version into the webserver with “webapp-config -U -h blog.leipie.com wordpress 2.7.1“.
The only thing left is to copy back wp.config.php and run “http://blog.leipie.com/wp-admin/upgrade.php”
Wonderful!
