I'm guessing it's to do with the change of software name, and the change
in location of cachedir, which means that it's not finding things
properly any more. I think it's tried to migrate cachedir somewhere

As you guessed correctly this might be the issue: there is migration code
which will reset this value if it's considered the default value. This
obviously isn't detected correctly. Would it work again if you manually
set this value again?

Just to confirm (in case anyone else runs into a similar problem) - this
was resolved by a completely fresh install of SC, including deleting all
of my old directories in which SC has been installed at various times

There's no reason to believe that you will need to change your tags. The
