perl script generateDotPlot fails

[ebioman]

Hi
Using perl 5 version 24 results in the following error:

Can't use 'defined(%hash)' (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) at bin/generateDotPlot line 576.

Which is not the only position. Removing defined() get rid of the error and works well.

I used this command to fix (perl 5.26):

perl -i -pe 's/defined \(%/\(%/' generateDotPlot.pl
per this thread with similar problems in Mummer.

I see, thanks for the info @jebard .
