you get a message, not an error. Somebody complained that he
didn't get the LO-TO splitting in phonon dispersions, so I added 
this message to warn that effective charges and dielectric tensor 
were not found in the dynamical matrix file at q=0 and thus the
LO-TO splitting will be absent. Since nobody seems to read even 
vaguely the users' guide, I'll write a more explicit message
