Well, a different fingerprint means a different identity key. Maybe
you didn't copy the identity key over correctly?

I notice your old one was Tor version 0.2.7.6 and your new one is Tor
0.2.8.6. So maybe it is a newer Debian, or maybe the timing is just
coincidence.

I also notice that your new Tor relay didn't start out with any
past estimated bandwidth. That makes me think your state file didn't
get transferred either. (These are all the BWHistory* lines.)

So I think your torrc did transfer correctly, but not your datadirectory.
