Sorry. I should have followed this thread more closely.

This issue is already known (always read the Upgrade Guide!). See
https://weewx.com/docs/5.0/upgrade/#new-location-for-user-directory

Our plan for upgrades using a package installer is to copy the user
directory over to /etc/weewx/bin/user, then timestamp the old directory
/usr/share/weewx/user.YYYY.MM.dd.hh, or something similar. However, this
has not been implemented yet.
