Dear CP2K expert, 

I am using the PBE method for the CELL optimization of a crystal 
with MONOCLINIC symmetry. 
Although I use KEEP_SPACE_GROUP true,  KEEP_SYMMETRY true, the coordinates 
in the trajectory file are cubic (alpha_beta_gamma=90). I have to use final 
coordinates with correct symmetry for VIBRATIONAL_ANALYSIS. 

Here is my input:
