> Why don’t you just [reinstall from scratch](https://community.openhab.org/t/openhab-4-migration-faq/148144#reinstalling-openhabian-on-raspberry-6) and import your old config as recommended ?

I shy away from the effort of a basic installation. I honestly don’t know what is necessary again until I can start oh-config and import a backup. And I still don’t know whether everything is really in the backup? Bindigs, settings etc.
