[gpaw-users] Custom-setup for Bi

Hi Vitali

Probably the generator thinks the electron configuration is strange.
I don't know if the generation process is broken as such though.  You
could try commenting out the assertion to check whether things seem to
make sense otherwise.  However I also find it a bit strange that the
core includes d electrons while the valence states include the f
electrons which are presumably lower in energy.  Is it quite meant to
be like that?

Best regards
Ask
