Is the gamma point only version of VASP supposed to be able to calculate the dielectric properties with LEPSILON = .TRUE. ? I get an error
My output looks like this:
Code: Select all

as written in the error statement: LI=.True. causes the gamma-only
(real) version to stop immediately.
please either set LI to false explicitely, or use the standard version of vasp

If I set LI=.FALSE. in my INCAR file, I get the same error. Apparently the code does not read the value LI from INCAR ? So must we use the standard version of VASP? This can be inconvenient since LEPSILON calculations are quite time consuming.
Thanks for any input you have.

LI is not read from INCAR, you have to change this statement in the
source-code and re-compile
