I think the missing weewx.conf is because I did *apt remove*, then renamed all the folders, thinking that would clean things out. However it looks like dpkg keeps a bit of config information elsewhere, and makes some incorrect assumptions.
An *apt purge* seems to be required, otherwise it is not really a fresh install.
