I have generated an eigenvalue file (using iscf=-2, kptopt=3, prteig=1, 
prtvol=2) over all k-points on a 24x24x24 mesh, with zero shifts. The reduced 
coordinates for the k mesh points are

kx = (ix+0.5)/24
ky = (iy+0.5)/24
kz = (iz+0.5)/24

with ix, iy, iz = -12, -11, ..., 0, ..., 10, 11.

The strange thing is that the *_EIG file produced has eigenvalues for all 
these k points except one:

k = (0.1042,  0.1042,  0.0208), i.e., (ix, iy, iz) = (2, 2, 0) is missing!

Does anyone have an idea what happened to this k point?

Cheers,
Steve
