Dear CP2k community, 
our team is currently performing geometry optimizations and single points 
on several zinc(II) bulks, and using v. 10.0.
While attempting to run geo_opts and wfn_opts using a DD-CAM functional 
(reported below the input file), we obtained an absurd value for the 
HOMO-LUMO gap (ca. 9 eV) of ZnO.
May I ask you for an advice in assemblying the input file?
Thanks in advance!
