I think you are filling the columns with empty lines - better (and easier)
would be to define a markup item for each case you have (middle pages and
last page):

  oddFooterMarkup = \markup
  \fill-line {
    %% Fuß alle Seiten außer erste und letzte
    \on-the-fly #not-last-page
    \on-the-fly #not-first-page
    \center-column {
      \line { \vspace #2 \override #'(span-factor . 2/3) \draw-hline }
      \line { \fromproperty #'header:hinweis  }
      \line { \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string }
     } 
      %% Fuß letzte Seite
    \on-the-fly #last-page
    \center-column {
      \line { \vspace #2 \override #'(span-factor . 2/3) \draw-hline }
      \line { \fromproperty #'header:hinweis }
      \line { \fromproperty #'header:tagline }
      \line { \fromproperty #'page:page-number-string }
    }
  }

of course this can be optimized depending on the logic and actions you
apply.
