I'm using the 18GB image, but when I use this workflow:

name: CI

on:
  push:
    paths-ignore:
    - '**/*.md'

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    strategy:
      matrix:
        emacs_version:
          # - 26.1
          # - 26.2
          # - 26.3
          - snapshot

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v1

    - uses: purcell/setup-emacs@master
      env:
        RUNNER_TEMP: /tmp # for some reason act don't inject this variable too.
      with:
        version: ${{ matrix.emacs_version }}

it fails with:
