Hi,

With the two-line patch applied to move_ions.f90, there seems not to be a
difference from the result obtained without the change.

 Here is my input:

&CONTROL
  calculation='vc-relax',
  outdir='temp',
  prefix='LiT1a',
  pseudo_dir='/home/imoses/pseudo/',
  verbosity='low',
  nstep = 200000
/
&system                     ! // aflow
 ibrav=7,                   ! // free
 nat=16,                    ! // a.atoms.size()
 ntyp=3                     ! // a.num_each_type.size()
 A = 6.1
 !B = 6.1
 C = 6.1
  ecutwfc=150,
  occupations='smearing',
  smearing='mv',
  degauss=0.005d0,

&cell
    press_conv_thr  = 0.5D0
    press           = 0.D0
    cell_dynamics   = 'bfgs'
    cell_factor = 8
   /
