I want to know symmetry properties of bands. However, bands.x complain the following error if I switch lsym to True:


 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine angle_rot (1):
     problem with the matrix
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

 * Key facts: I am using full-relevatistic paw pseudopotential.

 * Input files:
