Maybe okay?
"Next to :GAP in the scf file there is a warning: if you use a proper
k-mesh. One always has to check this :GAP value and compare it vs. a
detailed bandstructure plot, identifying the position of VBM and CBM. If
the scf k-mesh is course or does not contain Gamma (shifted mesh), the
quoted :GAP may be too large." [
