If you are upgrading from 1.4, the repository won't be sharded, which
is a perquisite for FSFS packing. You'll need to shard the
repository, either by copying it using svnsync or using the (not-quite-
supported) fsfs-reshard.py script.
Once you've got a sharded 1.6 repository, packing it should then
consolidate all completed shards.
