[Pw_forum] Generating VBC pseudo of Mg with ld1?

[merlin meheut]

Dear PWSCF users,

I would like to use the best-possible Mg pseudopotential, and had been  
a bit disappointed by those I have generated so far. Looking at the  
litterature, I realized that a pseudopotential generated using  
Von-Barth Car scheme gave pretty good results in LDA (actually, this  
is the Mg.pz-n-vbc.UPF pseudo on PWscf webpage). I would like to try a  
similar approach with PBE functional.
  I don't know if it is possible to use this scheme with ld1.x.
If it is I did not find how.

Apparently, on O-sesame webpage it is mentioned that this possibility  
is "temporarily removed".  Is there a way to get old versions of ld1  
code that do it? Or is there a more recent scheme doing things  
similarly?

Thank you in advance for any hints,

Regards,

Merlin
