@greg I think I have pushed everything we did now, but I may have lost a small thing somewhere. We'll see when we finish up the move, unless you already notice something missing.

Phew. Took me a while to migrate everything properly, but it's all done now.

On the way, I found out that we're currently not backing up the uploaded files in mediawiki's images directory, and we're also not moving them to a new folder in case the wiki itself is upgraded to a new version (which creates a whole new mediawiki directory in /var/www).

However, I still can't merge, because some updated cookbook deps were missing, and our certbot recipe doesn't work with Ubuntu 20.04, because the certbot authors decided to switch to effing snap packages. :/

Dang, my setup was broken by the failed Certbot run...

Edit: fixed again manually. Stopping here now, as I'm pretty sure a few current certbot things can't work when it's a snap. No idea why they're insisting on snapd, because it will break most PPA users' setups.

Wasn't too bad after all. The snap is only for the program itself, and all the rest is still the same as before, with only minor changes. Opening a new PR against master to make our LE stuff compatible with both 18.04 and 20.04.
