Bug in prtcif?

Post by maurosgroi » Wed Jan 12, 2011 2:58 pm

Dear developers,
I tried to print the CIF file for silicon (tutorial 3, file t31.in) just adding prtcif 1.
I got a CIF file with a wrong symmetry space group name (Pd-3m instead of Fd-3m).
The cif file is reported in the following.
Thanks a lot and best regards,
Mauro Sgroi.

Hi Mauro,

Right, this one misses the lattice system; spgroup 227 is cubic centered F. Strange, IIRW the engine is in spgdata.F90 which is well tested. Thanks for the bug report.

Kind regards,

Alain

Dear Alain,
Thanks a lot for the reply. Just to add an information I'm using the last 6.4.3 version of the code.
Attached there is the input file.
Best regards,
Mauro.

Hi Mauro,

you are quite correct - could we have your input and log? There is probably a residual bug in prtcif
