[Wien] compiling the WIEN2k 23.1 version

[Laurence Marks]

This is 95% not an indication of something wrong with your computer. The
error is indicating that the 87th row/column of your Hamiltonian is too
similar to another, so the Cholesky decomposition is failing. This most
often occurs if you have a mistake in your case.in1 file, where some of the
linearization energies are too close. If you have a bad potential (density)
I think it can also occur.

However, without more information it is hard to guess more. Perhaps save
the version that went wrong and recreate it. It may not be safe to mix an
old 17.1 version and 23.1, as some formats have changed.
