This error is strange because SKS doesn't configure the locking subsystem. The
only locks are what BDB uses internally for its transactions.

Try running

    db_recover -h DB

from /var/lib/sks. That will safely remove the BDB environment
(__db.nnn files)

Then

    db_recover -eh DB

to recreate the environment as specified in DB_CONFIG
