[molpro-user] Problems with Biorth run in parallel

[Alexander Mitrushchenkov]

Dear all,

I backported the recent changes in bi-orthogonal code into 2012.1 
version, which hopefully should fix the SEGV problems. It will appear in 
the next automatic PL release, surely within 30 days.

Best wishes,

Alexander

>> There were, even recently, some changes in bi-orthogonal code. So please provide exact molpro version (and patch level/SHA) you are using and supply the full input file (and related data). It might happen that you need to update molpro to get you job running.
