That's a leftover from a previous failed upgrade, when your existing
database was backed up but it failed before restoring it. Better keep
it safe.

I would suggest to move
/var/backups/dc=georchestra,dc=org-2.4.31-1+nmu2ubuntu3.ldapdb
somewhere safe, copy the contents back to /var/lib/ldap (basically
undoing the "moving old database directories" step), and try the
upgrade again. I guess it will fail again, but hopefully in a more
informative way. :)
