ctl_cyrusdb db version error

Wed Jul 27 17:02:20 EDT 2011

Helo,
on a server ( debian 5.0 ) I installed three years ago cyrus 3.2.11 but 
I have never used
now I wanted to install cyrus 2.4.10 but when I run the command 
/usr/cyrus/bin/ctl_cyrusdb -r I get :

Fatal error: wrong db version
segmentation fault

if on the same machine run ctl_cyrusdb of the version 2.3.11 does not 
give me errors.

I saw that ldd /usr/cyrus/bin/ctl_cyrusdb (version 4.2.10) is :

while ldd of the version 2.3.11 is :

/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb76ec000)
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0xb71a2000)

the output of "ls -la /usr/lib/libdb*" is :

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 897164 13 set 2008 /usr/lib/libdb-4.2.so

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 30 gen 2008 /usr/lib/libdb.so -> libdb-4.4.so

it is possible that ctl_cyrus version 2.4.10 compiled with version 4.6 
of libdb give me error because' /usr/lib/libbd.so is a symbolic link to 
version 4.4?

How can I fix this problem ?

Since I will have to do the same operation on a production server should 
I switch from berkeley db to skiplist db, before upgrade cyrus ?
