As described in [issue 2064](https://github.com/liquibase/liquibase/issues/2064), using `<loadData>` to import data from CSV into a table that has one or more columns of type `uuid` fails, because the column type is mapped to a value that the Oracle driver does not recognize. Creating the table works though.

Has anybody else come across this issue and found a workaround for it?

I’ve added a fix description to [issue 2064](https://github.com/liquibase/liquibase/issues/2064) that works for our situation.
