[DFTB-Plus-User] Compilation of DFTB+ version 1.3

Unfortunately, I could not find the error message in your log file.
Could you make sure, you also write standard error into the log file?

As for the compilers, ifort 12, gfortran 4.4 and 4.8 are definitely too
old. Ifort 14 I am not sure about, but we have tested the code with
ifort only for versions 15 and 16. See the appropriate table in the
release notes:

The older compilers had several bugs in their F2003 implementation,
which for example the dftd3 library makes us of. So, please, try to use
a more recent one.

Best regards,

Bálint
