As the real issue behind this issue was in my case this:
githubmemory.com/repo/pganssle/zon...
I just downgraded python 3.10 to 3.8 and it works again.
This seems to be an issue with not yet updated django related packages, and as soon as they use zoneinfo instead of backports.zoneinfo, it should work with python 3.10 again.
Thanks for your post, you pushed me to the right direction!
