[Wannier] Question on skip_B1_tests variable

[Carissa Wu]

Dear Dominik,

Thank you so much, that was the problem. I was actually using Wannier90
version 2.0; I will try to reinstall version 2.1.

Regarding nnkpts, does this mean I do not have to set the variable
shell_list to 1 in my wannier90.win file anymore? And simply implement the
nnkpts block in my python code instead?

Thanks,

Carissa
