[CP2K:3995] GTH BLYP and B3LYP basis sets and pseudopotentials for Fe

Hi,

the MOLOPT basis set is designed to go with a 18 electron pseudo potential, 
so it might well give a bad result with an 8 electron one, as you use.

Also mixing pseudo potentials for with functionals that they weren't 
designed for is generally not a good idea. Whilst there aren't specific 
pseudos for B3LYP at the moment, it would be better to use BLYP ones than 
PADE.

So changing the Fe pseudo to GTH-BLYP-q16 and the S to GTH-BLYP-q6 and see 
how that affects things.

Matt
