As part of re-learning JDFTX, I was trying to reproduce some recent literature results with 1.7.0. Flat bands have a lot of interesting features so I picked this to start,

The Co pseudopotential had to be converted with upf2upf2 which shouldn't be a big deal except apparently it was not included with qe 7.3 I had to go get 6.4 and build it separately. The problem however appears to be with the Sm

What is the current status related to this?

Thanks.

Just use the ultrasoft version of that same pseudopotential, likely from here: https://www.materialscloud.org/discover/sssp/table/efficiency. See https://www.materialscloud.org/discover/sssp/plot/efficiency/Sm for example too, the US version seems more accurate than the PAW one (marginally) for the pure element equation of state.
