[Wien] Problem with effective U calculation, solved

Hi Gerhard,

Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
In fact, I was using a potential shift but clearly not
the appropriate one. I did not realize that the convergence
was sensitive to its value.
In my case it works for a potential shift around 3.

Best and thanks again,

                      Ruben
