 > the issues can be recreated as follows:

 > I have an old migration that sets the field with unique=true

 db_collation="utf8_unicode_ci"

 > The old migration runs first, and creates a LIKE index for the field.
 The new migration attempts to run:

 supported for operator class "varchar_pattern_ops"

 by the first migration
