Hello all,

I’ve been trying to construct a crystalline structure of symmetry C2/c, unique 
axis b, space group 15. The atoms lie in the 8f Wyckoff positions 
(http://www.cryst.ehu.es/cgi-bin/cryst/programs/nph-wp-list?gnum=15&gua=b). I 
tried using 

> Space_group = 15
> Uniqueb = .true. 

And assigning the atoms sites as instructed by the manual

> ATOMIC_POSITIONS crystal_sg
> F 8f  0.285000000    0.31700000    0.099700000

However, the programs fails and can’t find the Wyckoff site to generate the 
entire structure for this symmetry. In fact, when inspecting the wypos.f90 
module (around line 1048) I noticed that this site specifically was not 
implemented, so if anyone else is facing the same problem, this might be cause. 

I believe that the problem could be corrected by adding

> ELSEIF (TRIM(wp)=='8f') THEN
>        tau(1)=inp(1)
>        tau(2)=inp(2)
>        tau(3)=inp(3)

In the wypos_15 subroutine (but I’m not sure, correct me if I’m wrong). For the 
time being, I circumvented the problem by using ibrav=-12 and explicitly 
assigning each atomic position.
