This is a possible source of trouble if the output directory is not visible
to all processors. Please try one of the following:
- do what it is suggested (or simply: edit Ga.pbe-dn-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF,
replace all occurrences of "&" with "&")
- get version 6.6, that reads the pseudopotential file on one processor and
broadcast its contents to all other processes
- get the development version, that in addition is not sensitive to the
presence of nonstandard "&" in the files,
