#rt-setup-database-3.8 --action init --skip-create

I’m curious, where did you see --skip-create documented as an argument?
If I run your command I get a warning about --skip-create

I think you want to run
–action coredata
–action insert --datafile etc/initialdata

in order to skip DB creation, schema creation and acl creation.

–skip-creates is a Debian modification, designed to populate the
database without DBA privileges.
