[gpaw-users] M062X functional

Hello

I am hardly qualified to answer these questions, but since nobody else
is answering, the following statements are at least somewhat likely to
be true.  You should be able to update libxc independently.  Yes, you
would need to generate a setup for any functional you want to use.  It
may not be completely crazy to use parameters (cutoffs etc.) from the
corresponding setup from the most similar functional you can find.
But you would have to test the setup.

Regards
Ask
