    Dear ELK Developers,
    I tried runing Dry run for phonons using Task 201 in elk-3.3.17 and some earlier too. However, I did not obtain the DYN matrices. However, when I tried the same using older version of elk elk-1.4.18 o got the task done.
    Please check the issue.

    Hi,

    Thanks for pointing this out.

    The dry run task in elk-3.3.17 is 202 not 201. I've updated the manual to reflect this.

    Regards,
    Kay.

    ... incidently, task=201 is the same as task=200 (i.e. a supercell phonon calculation), but starting from existing STATE_Qqqqq_qqqq_qqqq_Sss_Aaa_Pp.OUT files.

    So how to interpolate the coarse q-mesh to arbitrary fine q-mesh for the supercell phonon calculation? Should I use the task=202?
