[QE-users] "wrong offset" error when using SG15 pseudo

Dear Sergey,

try to give a look inside your SG15 pseudopotential for Mn. For some reason
the code does not find the d states it is expecting to use for the +U
correction. If you do a calculation with dft_plus_u = .false. can you
compute the projected density of states? Do you get anything on the 3d
states? If projwfc finds them then also pw should find the 3d states.

Best,

Matteo
