installing berkeley db on 10.3 client/vanilla

hello

sorry if this is not the correct place to post, but since it is related to my mail server here goes.

i have looked through the afp548 site and found a few places where installation of berkeley db is described (below is a quote).

can some on explain the first line (don't install), please give me a reason.
i ask this because i am trying to install cyrus and berkeley db is required and i wan to make sure i am doing the right thing.

Don't install berkeleyDB using an installer package, build it from source using the following instructions

% cd ../db/build_unix

% ../dist/configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --sysconfdir=/etc

% make; sudo make install

% cd ../
