Currently, I'm using the source code package WIEN2k_19.2.tar from the 
Code download [1] area of the WIEN2k website but with the 
WIEN2k_VERSION.patch at [2] that adjusts the WIEN2k_VERSION file from 
having version 19.1 to match the version 19.2 information given on the 
WIEN2k website.  The Segmentation fault error seems to be particular to 
your system (Linux operating system, Fortran compiler, etc.) as I was 
NOT able to reproduce the error as seen below:
