[QE-users] Compilation issue under MacOs: 7.3 versus 7.3.1

Hi all,

I'm experiencing a compilation issue of pw.x under MacOS 14.6.1.
The make.inc is pasted at the end of this message.
While with this make.inc qe-7.3 straightly compiles, using the SAME make.inc
qe-7.3.1 produces this error:
______________________ ERROR ______________________

It seems that libmbd is causing the issue or at least it is the
point where the issue shows up.

Does anybody have any hint about how to make 7.3.1 compile just as 7.3?

Thanks.
Giovanni
