there is no need to reinstall the relay

you didn't say what OS you use but since you mentioned apt-get you are probably running debian or ubuntu.
In that case you might want to use the Torproject's Debian packages.

Setup instructions can be found here:

https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en
https://www.torproject.org/relay-guide

Using that repo will give you tor 0.3.5.8 (which is currently recommended)

> - secret_id_key
> - secret_onion_key_ntor

simply copy the entire "keys" folder in your DataDirectory and make sure the filesystem permissions
are set properly and you should be fine.
