Domoticz in openwrt 23.05.0

For Developers
1

After installing 23.05.0 on the RT3200, the domoticz package does not work anymore.
It does not start and claims that Python is not available:

Status: PluginSystem: Failed dynamic library load, install the latest libpython3.x library that is available for your platform.

I thought this might be related to the new Python 3.11 version that now ships with 23.05.0
Browsing through the code for domoticz, I found this patch 990-python3.10_fix.patch

#else

Here is just replaced "python3.10" with "python3.11", and compiled the package.
After installing, domoticz seems to work properly if started manually, but is does not start automatically anymore.
How can I fix this properly?

AFAIK, newer version includes these fixes. Need to backport.

I tried to contact the package maintainer, but I have not received a reply.
Are there more people familiar with this package?
