[QE-users] Segmentation Fault when running pw.x

As I mentioned in a previous entry,   we have been experiencing the same
very intermittent  error for both pw.x and ph.x .    We have no ideas about
the origin except that it seems to be related to the version of the openmpi
library.   For 3.1.1-intel-2018 and 3.1.0-intel-2018 the error is rather
frequent.   For 2.1.0-intel-2018, it seems to happen less frequently.    It
appears for QE 6.2.1 and 6.3.   Unfortunately, it does not appear for very
short jobs, but I will be happy to provide a sample input file for an
intermediate size job if that will be helpful.....    Thanks, Natalie
