Hi Karl!
Thank you for the help and the useful suggestion.
The strange thing is that I also looked into leaprc.ff03 file and here
CG atom is sp2-hybridized. In both AMBER8 and AMBER10 (though I think
the files are the same anyway):
{ "CG" "C" "sp2" }
I deleted this line in leaprc.ff03, loaded leaprc.ff03 and
leaprc.GLYCAM_06 as source files and in this case I didn't get any
warnings in my log file after creation of sugars topology. It is
surprising because I load initial leaprc.ff03 first and I would expect
that after loading also leaprc.GLYCAM_06, the information could be
overwritten but it does not happen.
Best regards,
Sergey
