[gpaw-users] GW

I would like to test the Hybrid calculations.

Now I would like to generate the setups.

xc_functional.py contains PBE0, B3LYP

I call gpaw-setup -f PBE0 -x

and get

Scalar-relativistic atomic PBE0 calculation for Ni (Nickel, Z=28)
600 radial gridpoints.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/mpei/bin/gpaw-setup", line 143, in <module>
    use_restart_file=opt.use_restart_file, **p)
  File "/home/mpei/lib/python/gpaw/atom/generator.py", line 201, in run
    AllElectron.run(self, use_restart_file)
  File "/home/mpei/lib/python/gpaw/atom/all_electron.py", line 183, in run
    self.xcfunc.xc.pass_stuff_1d(self)
AttributeError: pass_stuff_1d


What am I doing wrong?
