Hi, CP2K users and developers,

I want to convert some pseudopotentials with NLCC (nonlinear core correction) to UPF format with ATOM module, but I find CP2K exits with errors like "l value too high". Is there any parameter that I gave wrong value?

&GLOBAL
  PROGRAM_NAME ATOM
&END GLOBAL
&ATOM
  ELEMENT C
  ELECTRON_CONFIGURATION  [He] 2s2 2p2
  CORE [He]

  &METHOD
     METHOD_TYPE  KOHN-SHAM

ELECTRON_CONFIGURATION CORE 2s2 2p2
CORE [He]
