Don't know where you saw that. There's always been a sensor-specific
section in weewx.conf.
In your case, it looks like you are missing the [Acurite] section. When you
upgraded, you should have seen something like:
Configuration file '/etc/weewx/weewx.conf'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** weewx.conf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?
Do you recall how you answered the question? If you answered 'Y', then you
would get a fresh version of weewx.conf, with no information about your
station.
You can fix with the utility wee_config:
*wee_config --reconfigure*
