@smuzaffar these errors look quite random, and unrelated to these changes; are there any problems with the IBs ? or should I try to reproduce and look into them ?

[smuzaffar]

@fwyzard , all of these unit tests are failing in IBs too.

This pull request is fully signed and it will be integrated in one of the next IB/CMSSW_12_0_X/master IBs (but tests are reportedly failing). This pull request will now be reviewed by the release team before it's merged. @silviodonato, @dpiparo, @qliphy, @perrotta (and backports should be raised in the release meeting by the corresponding L2)
