Maybe it is necessary to rebuild topology for wind at baltic first before 
copying, because otherwise the database links can not be read because 
support files including dbln can not be opened. Maybe it is a good idea 
to let grass7 open and read database links even if other support files 
can not be opened (missing or unsupported version)?
