Dear Quantum Espresso users and developers,

Does anyone know that Quantum Espresso is capable of calculating Raman 
intensities? When I want to do the phonon calculations I get the following 
error:


error: task #         0
     from phq_setup : error #         1
     third order derivatives not implemented with GGA


According to what is provided on the Quantum Espresso website, Raman 
calculations work only with NC pseudo-potentials and I tried to use that kind 
of PP in my scf calculations. Below is my scf and phonon calculations input 
files. Any help would be thoroughly appreciated on how to get Raman intensities.
