I was certainly unable to take lists to 2.1.5 when I tried recently on full system upgrade - I ended up recreating the lists with significant pain involved.
Can you provide details? I consider it a bug that lists cannot be upgrade from 2.0.13 to 2.1.6. You might need to upgrade from 2.0.x where x < 13, to 2.0.13 first though.
There have been reports on the mailman-users list of difficulties in moving/upgrading lists from older versions. After grappling with these issues in my own mind, I have concluded that the likely explanation is not that the new Mailman can't update the old list's config.db, but rather that the marshal format of the old lists config.db is not compatible with the Python on the new system.
Does this seem reasonable, or am I off track here.
