As detailed in the emails below, using qe-7.1 for a smeared magnetized scf computation on NiPS3, I keep running into a segmentation fault error. The error seems to be specific to the smeared calculation, as when I remove the smearing (instead running with tot_magnetization=0
so I can still do a colinear calculation as is required for SCAN in the current version), I still can't get it to converge but there is no error. This may also have something to do with using input_dft='scan', as when I instead use the default exchange from
my pseudopotentials the error only happens sometimes (i.e. 50% of the time rather than 100%).</div>

I'm new to all this, but as you can see I've emailed the users forum and was directed to report a bug.</div>
