[gmx-users] Re: forward and reverse free energy not consistant (Li Qiang)

Hello,

I'm having a similar problem, i.e. inconsistency between forward and
reverse  free energy calculations, in changing the chirality of a dihedral.
In my case it is unlikely that there is histeresis,  given that  I have  a
long  simulation. Could you be more specific about the bug you're referring
to, I checked the reported known bugs and didn't find anything that was
likely to cause this strange results.

Thanks

Which GMX version are you using?  There's a known bug in version 3.3.1
that has been fixed in 3.3.3.
