The package is relatively up-to-date in testing/unstable. Obviously stable is another story. That said I have no experience with updates through the dashboard and it's not something that is likely to be supported by Debian. We much prefer updates through packages. But having working themes and plugins available through symlinks in /var/lib/wordpress is something that I'd like to get working. That said for non-packaged plugins/themes, you should have the real files in /var/lib/wordpress/ and not symlinks... so I'm not sure what you are having trouble with. Is it only the dashboard-based update that is not working well for you?
