rsim#291 added the ORA-01805 workaround to `ruby_head.yml`. The same root cause -- `gvenzl/oracle-free:latest` shipping a newer timezone-data version than the "latest" Instant Client embeds -- affects every other workflow that combines that image with ruby-oci8: - `truffleruby.yml`: failing on schedule since 2026-05-09 with `ORA-01805` from `ocidatetime.c:119 in oci8lib_truffleruby.so` (https://github.com/rsim/ruby-plsql/actions/runs/25710673905). - `test.yml`: not yet run against the updated image (latest run was 2026-05-08, image upgrade landed on 05-09); will fail on the MRI matrix slots on the next push/PR. - `test_gemfiles.yml`: same situation as test.yml. Apply the same dynamic copy-and-set-ORA_TZFILE step immediately after `Create database user`. `jruby_head.yml` is excluded because it uses the JDBC driver and is not affected (confirmed still green on schedule).

Summary
#291 added the ORA-01805 workaround to
ruby_head.yml. The same root cause —gvenzl/oracle-free:latestshipping a newertimezlrg_*.datthan the "latest" Instant Client embeds — affects every other workflow that combines that image with ruby-oci8:truffleruby.yml: failing on schedule since 2026-05-09 withORA-01805fromocidatetime.c:119 in oci8lib_truffleruby.so(run 25710673905).test.yml: not yet run against the updated image (latest run was 2026-05-08, image upgrade landed on 05-09); will fail on the MRI matrix slots (4.0,3.4,3.3) on the next push/PR.test_gemfiles.yml: same situation astest.yml.Apply the same dynamic copy-and-set-
ORA_TZFILEstep immediately afterCreate database user, identical to #291.jruby_head.ymlis excluded because it uses the JDBC driver and is not affected (confirmed still green on schedule).Stacked on top of #291 in spirit (same fix, same root cause) but contains an independent file set, so the two can land in either order.
