I'm not sure, the rprim look ok, but you have to check with the space group. Angles, etc are also output by abinit, you can check those, and I don't know if the xred are supposed to be highly symmetrical (0.25 or if there value is correct)...
good luck!

Dear Matthieu,
thanks for your kind reply. I did your suggested changes and the
system is still changing the symmetry.. this is quite surprising....
Now my input includes
acell 3*7.9899636324E+00
rprim 5.7005417584E-01 0.0000000000E+00 8.2160710438E-01

-2.8502708792E-01 -4.9368140048E-01 8.2160710438E-01
xred 3*2.4055724610E-01
3*-2.4055724610E-01
Is there any other relation that the a(i,j) should follow?..
Just to give you an example, I did the zero pressure calculation
and the symmetry is fine and the parameters for that case are
xred 2.3464570938E-01 2.3464570938E-01 2.3464570938E-01
-2.3464570938E-01 -2.3464570938E-01 -2.3464570938E-01
acell 8.3880824458E+00 8.3880824458E+00 8.3880824458E+00

Sorry that I am emailing you to yoru account.. I hope it is Ok.
Best regards and thanks in advance
