Hello,
I need to generate pseudopotentials similar to Pt.pz-nd-rrkjus.UPF
that is available in the espresso  web site
The info is
<PP_INFO>

    1        The Pseudo was generated with a Scalar-Relativistic Calculation

However, when I try to generate a similar pseudo using the following
input

 &input
        title='Pt',
        zed=78.0,
        rel=1,
        iswitch=3,
        rlderiv=2.50,
        eminld=-4.0,
        emaxld=4.0,
        deld=0.02,
        nld=4,
        config='[Xe] 4f14 5d8 6s2 6p0',
        dft='PZ',
        prefix='pt.pz'
 /
 &inputp
        pseudotype=3,
        lloc=0,
        file_pseudopw='Pt.pz-rkkj3-us2.UPF',
        nlcc=.true.,
        rcore=1.2,
        rcloc=2.5
 /

6P  2  1  0.00 -0.00  2.20  2.60
5D  3  2  8.00  0.00  2.15  2.40
5D  3  2  0.00 -0.20  2.15  2.40
6S  1  0  2.00  0.00  2.15  2.60

I get the output

 ld1.x< pt.pp-us.in

     program ld1 starts. version 3.1
     today is 27Aug2006 at  9: 5:41



%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     from ld1_readin : error #         1
     US requires at least two energies per channel

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

     stopping ...

The meaning of the message is clear, but the existing ppseudopotential was
generated with some version of ld1.x that allowed 1 projector per channel.

What version?

Is the input file available?

What is the problem using less than two energies per channel?

Thanks
