The 'SCAN' name in qe is a compact notation that is directly translated into the libxc indexes 263 and 267, equivalent to the functionals MGGA_X_SCAN and MGGA_C_SCAN. Regardless the name notation, if you find a line like this: ( 0 0 0 0 0 263 267) in the output, after 'Exchange-correlation', it should be ok, because it means that the two libxc functionals have been detected. If not, let me know. However it is clear that the best thing should be to understand why the first notation does not work in your case. Cheers
