Dear All,
I am getting following error in occupation factor calculation using
epsilon.x of QE-6.4.1 for metals. In post-processing user guide it is
recommended that to calculate occupation factor first for metallic
systems. The error message and input files are,
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Error in routine epsilon (1):
