[Wannier] ERROR: unitarity of initial U

[Gianluca Giovannetti]

Dear Arash,

the error i mentioned before it is solved using different version of LAPACK
and BLAS on the machines i`m using currenlty.
the post on this mailing list is then correct.
thank you for the advice.

However the convergence in getting the Wannier functions in the run is bad.
I`m wondering what is the problem related to this...probably the initial
guess....

Best Regards,

Gianluca Giovannetti
