[Wien] LSMO GGA+U

Dear Prof. Yassin, and WIEN experts,

I guess you mean I should change "nsic" from "0" to "1". Actually I 
realized this already yesterday, and it makes my band structure more 
similar to Chikamatsu et al., however, there are still clear differences 
mainly in the oxygen derived bands.

Does it make sense at all to switch on "+U" for oxygen and La in the 
case of cubic LSMO ?

Regards,
Lukasz
