Ypp error when generate modify quasi-particle databases for spin polarized system

[cguo17]

Dear developers,

It seems that we can use "ypp -q g" to generate modify quasi-particle databases "ndb.QP" from ypp input. After running "ypp -q g", the code (yambo version 4.5.x / 5.0.x) can successfully generate a "ypp.in" file with correct QP corrections value as o.qp file.

However, for spin polarized system, when I run "ypp -F ypp.in" with the same information it read in to overwrite the ndb.QP data file, it always stop with error information "Duplicated quasi-particle index found". So I checked the ypp/qp/QP_DBs_create_and_modify.F file and find the line "if(QP_done(ib,ib,ik,is)) call error("Duplicated quasi-particle index found")" related to this error. Also, if I comment this line ypp can go through the overwrite step and generate a new ndb.QP file in "SAVE" folder, but that ndb.QP file is much larger than the original file and can't read by yambo during GW/BSE step. I think this is an error related to "n_sp_pol" setings for spin polarized system. Do you have any advice for how to correct this issue? Thanks!

Best, Chunhao

Dear Chunhao

different bugs have been solved in the last version of Yambo
please update your code to the last one:
