How to generate ANADDB output for quadrupole tensor

Running Abinit Other tools and postprocessing in ABINIT
1

I am a beginner, working on electron–phonon–limited mobility calculations in Perturbo for a 2D MoS₂ monolayer, using ABINIT v10.2.5.

Current status

  • DFPT calculations completed successfully

  • Individual DDBs merged using mrgddb → final mos2o_DDB

  • ANADDB can read the merged DDB

  • I already have the quadrupole tensor in text format

Problem

Perturbo requires the quadrupole tensor in HDF5 format, generated via a script that expects the ANADDB output file (produced by lw_qdrpl / quadflag in ANADDB).

However, I am struggling to generate a valid ANADDB run:

  • Several variables, such as dosflag, ndos, ngrdos are rejected as unrecognized

  • Phonon DOS requires ng2qpt

  • Even after fixing this, ANADDB fails before producing tlw_3.abo

What is the minimal and correct ANADDB input to generate quadrupole-related output compatible with Perturbo (required annadb format)?
Any guidance or example inputs would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance.
