How about reaching out to the original author and outlining the problems that you've been encountering? This way, you can at least give them a chance to respond privately or correct potential misunderstandings with the paper (perhaps publicly).
Similar analogy would be approaching a vendor regarding a security/vulnerability disclosure.
- montecarl 15y agoI already have. They recently gave me the source code and I pointed out the problems. They agree that there are bugs in their code. I just haven't approached them about publishing a comment on their paper because I feel bad about it.
