[CP2K-user] Nonsensical energies with MGGA functionals via LibXC

Dear Colleagues,

I am trying to do a simple calculation with some MGGA functionals. This is 
for CP2K 6.1 compiled with Libxc 4.2.3. The calculations with the built-in 
functionals (using &XC_FUNCTIONAL PBE or &XC_FUNCTIONAL TPSS) work fine. 
Calculations of Libxc driven PBE also work fine, with the attached input 
file. When switching to TPSS (or M06_L), as long as I use only one 
component (XC_MGGA_X_TPSS or XC_MGGA_C_TPSS), the calculations work OK. 
When I try to combine them (see the other attachment), the energy is 
immediately nonsensical. Combining eg. XC_MGGA_X_TPSS with XC_GGA_C_PBE 
also doesn't work.

Arch file attached.

I hope you can help,
Best,
Peter
