Hi Sabine,
I have checked all hydrogens that are produced by elbow in the 
elbow.ligand.pdb and they look fine. The carboxyl group has a hydrogen 
that has to be dissociated in a carboxylate. May be this is causing the 
problem. The best geometry I got for this ligand i got in CNS. HIC-Up 
server says 5 flat planes, but elbow finds only 2.
Hopefully, Ralf will figure out the problem.
