  An optical potential constructed using the ${\bar p}N$ scattering amplitudes
derived from the 2009 version of the Paris ${\bar N}N$ potential is applied in
calculations of ${\bar p}$ quasi-bound states in selected nuclei across the
periodic table. A proper self-consistent procedure for treating energy
dependence of the amplitudes in a nucleus appears crucial for evaluating ${\bar
p}$ binding energies and widths. Particular attention is paid to the role of
$P$-wave amplitudes. While the $P$-wave potential nearly does not affect
calculated ${\bar p}$ binding energies, it reduces considerably the
corresponding widths. The Paris $S$-wave potential supplemented by a
phenomenological $P$-wave term yields in dynamical calculations ${\bar p}$
binding energies $B_{\bar p}\approx 200$ MeV and widths $\Gamma_{\bar
p}\sim~200 - 230$ MeV, which is very close to the values obtained within the
RMF model consistent with ${\bar p}$-atom data.
