12 Is there a guide or something on how to downgrade from version 5 to 4?
13 I'm assuming that I can't just point 4 to my database files and expect
14 them to work.

16 Also why did it take so long to determine that 5 does not work? I've
17 been running 5 on amd64 systems since 21 October without any issues and
18 now I have to figure out how I am going to downgrade.
