[CP2K:8666] bond energy and BSSE in cp2k

[S Ling]

Hi

You're right. Apparently, my understanding was wrong and I mixed things up
when I was referring to the BSSE vs plane-wave basis sets; BSSE is absent
in plane wave codes.

The GPW method in CP2K uses mixed Gaussian/plane-wave basis sets as you
said, so there is always BSSE in the part of the calculation which is done
using localised Gaussian basis sets.
