[Mesa-users] Plotting evaporation mass loss

[Divyansh Tripathi 20108]

Thanks for the solution,

I am running mesa version 7624 inside a docker container due to papers
requirement.
It seems the hook other_adjust _mdots is not defined in this version of
mesa and is also not in binary.def file. So compilation error occurs.
Till now problem still persists.
