Previously, omd restore did not handle an empty site directory correctly, if executed as a site user. The following error would be displayed.

  orig_apache_port = config["APACHE_TCP_PORT"]
KeyError: 'APACHE_TCP_PORT'

This has been fixed. To prevent user errors, omd restore will now verify that the user targeted by the restore command is a site user.
