Dear all,

While using the different van der Waals functionals often people use a
different description of the exchange & correlation in the pseudopotential
files and override those with the appropriate value of input_dft in the pw
input file. For example I generate a pseudopotential with DFT="PBE" and use
that to do a calculation where in the input file I use input_dft="rVV10".

I was wondering whether this is the correct way to do it? In principle one
should generate the pseudopotential also with DFT="rVV10".

With regards,

Prasenjit
