In future schema qualify all references.

For now in the dump file you could search for

SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false);

and set to

SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', 'public', false);

What if this had been a pg_dump --format={custom,directory} backup?

pg_restore has a mode where it can dump out SQL to a script instead of directly restoring to the database.
