Katya,
What in particular do you think the bug was? I've noticed the problem
before, but it wasn't clear in what circumstances the bug would pop up, etc.
I've been using parmchk a lot, but because of my awareness of the problem
I've always been manually checking the impropers to make sure they make
sense, so I'm very interested in knowing whether this is actually
definitively resolved.
Thanks,
David
