Thanks for the report, please could you share what are the versions of your Rails and ActiveRecord gems you use in the application?

Ok, I did some testing with Rails 6.1.7.7.

For a workaround it looks to be necessary to specify the variable VERSION as empty in command like so: VERSION= bin/rails db:migrate. Forcing VERSION to be empty either as showed or alternatively via export VERSION=. Rails 5 up to Rails 7 seem to have the required bits for this workaround to work, I have not tested all of them though.

Alternative workaround for when executed via shell (e.g. bash), unset the version like so: unset VERSION; bin/rails db:migrate.

We plan to incorporate a fix to ruby 3.3 Fedora image.
