Inconsistency in molecular dipole calculation

[Daniele Passerone]

Just for the sake of completeness:

exactly the same input file as before, but with the following cell:

    A  24.22 13.43   00
    B  0.0  25.80  0.0
    C  0.0  00.00  30.0


gives rise to the following DIPOLE

MOLECULAR=TOTAL

 17.948087   -2.330780    0.923091


So we have a problem with non-orthorombic cells
