It seems tests are still failing due to root-project#13429

Ok, thanks for testing. Was worth a try, but then I have to get a debugger going...

Right, I am trying to figure out why the reproducer does not work for you. Let's see if @smuzaffar can point out something on Monday. I think we might be missing one config step since the file is supposed to be public. Otherwise, I can give you access to one of our machines and set up a development area for you there.

Sorry for the inconvenience! :)

I think this testing PR can be closed, the associated change was merged into ROOT master already last week. On the positive side, I made significant progress to understand root-project#13429: A workaround in CMSSW is proposed in cms-sw/cmssw#42628.

[smuzaffar]

@hahnjo , thanks a lot for looking in to the issue and providing a the cmssw fix cms-sw/cmssw#42628
