regarding your last note about Libxc hybrid_gga functionals, I am working to update the XC part of QE with the last changes in Libxc and, in general, improve the implementation of the Libxc hybrids, which, up to now, is somewhat partial, in the sense that the
internal exx_fraction is not always 'catched' in the right way.</div>

I plan to push such modifications before the next QE release, so pretty soon.</div>

Agreed that meta-GGAs + unscreened-EXX may be unusable in a PW code, but I'm tasked with determining that.

I will try to follow the implementation of hybrid-GGAs and see if it's feasible to add the functionality for hybrid meta-GGAs.

it is difficult, but: hybrid functionals are computationally heavy, <br>
