Dear Peter Blaha,
During the calculation of the TiO2 anatase phase, I input the space group
141 - I41/amd, the program generatet the structure file as
TiO2-ana.struct, which is not consistent with the .cif file from ICSD
(TiO2-1.cif) and also the data from International Tables for
Crystallography.
The diatance between Ti and O is too samll and the calculation can not go
on.

The positions of Ti should be (0, 0, 0), (0, 1/2, 1/4), (1/2, 1/2, 1/2), 
and (1/2, 0, 3/4) according to the International Tables of 
Crystallography. Also the positions of O are not consistent with the 
tables.
