[QE-users] Problem using SCAN in pp.x

Dear Fabrizio,

As I explained in my first email, I have compiled (used "make all" ) it
properly with the latest version of libxc and I could successfully run
relax, scf, nscf... calculations. The error
message came up only when I used "pp.x" to extract electrostatic potential
from those calculations using SCAN.

I will try to recompile it and see if the error exists.

Best,
Abhirup
