xTB bug with v6.7.1 from Conda #1410

Description

@shoubhikraj

Describe the bug
There is possibly a serious bug with either energy/gradient or the geometry optimizer in xTB 6.7.1 installed from conda.

To Reproduce

  1. Install xtb from conda-forge either Linux aarch64 or Windows.
  2. Run simple geometry optimisation on an organic molecule (helicene.xyz.txt)
  3. The molecule will explode (xtbopt.xyz.txt)

The command I have used is xtb helicene.xyz --opt --cycles 20

There was no issue in the last version I used which is xTB 6.6.0.
