Installation
apt-get install wordpress
Setup apache to point to /usr/share/wordpress.
See the /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/apache.conf
Database setup can be done with the help of a script in /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql
bash /usr/share/doc/wordpress/examples/setup-mysql -n wordpress <my.blog.site>
It's a bit more tricky if your mysql server is not localhost, you can make a copy of the script and make some adjustments and/or create the DB and user manually
To get nicer URLs (e.g. <my.blog>/2008/04/mypost), add this to /etc/wordpress/htaccess:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Beware that by default emails are sent from wordpress@your.blog.domain and it's pretty hard to change that everywhere without hacking the code, so make sure you have a corresponding MX record (otherwise some spam filters could refuse to deliver the mail to the newly registered users waiting for a password) and ideally make sure your MTA accepts to receive replies in case someone tries to reply to those mails...
With Debian once you added the "your.blog.domain" to the list of local_domains you can also use /etc/email-addresses to overwrite the From: address by another one so you don't need the MX record in that case.
