Dear all

I am using QE and BoltzTraP2.

In BoltzTrap2, when trying to interpolate,
btp2 -v interpolate -m 2 -e -0.5 . /xml
I get the following when I run
Value error: inconsistent set of k points

. /xml contains only xml files.
Here are the scf and nscf files.
I got the same error without specifying nosym or noinv.
