======= 8< ========
If your version of the compiler does not have SetEnv.Cmd you may need to use
vcvarsall.bat or vcvars32.bat which do much the same thing as SetEnv.cmd. For
example, on some 64-bit installations, one would build a 32-bit version by
invoking
> "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat
and one would build a 64-bit version using the command
> "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\Vcvarsall.bat" amd64
Consult your compiler’s documentation to learn which version applies to your
installation.
======= 8< ========
In the latest version of Visual Studio 2010EE (as suggested by the
instructions), vcvars32.bat doesn't exist anymore, it is now all vcvarsall.bat

Archive/unzip
Base/dos2unix
Devel/bison
Devel/flex
Devel/git (recommended - see discussion about using Git below)
Interpreters/perl
Utils/patch (optional)
Web/wget
======= 8< ========
base/dos2unix is in utils, while you need to add interpreters/m4 to the list to
get ascend.y converted by bison into ascend.c.
The same page has conflicting path names. Generally it talks about
c:\development\wireshark, but in the Build Wireshark section and in the Create
Wireshark Installer section it still refers to c:\wireshark:
Run C:\wireshark\wireshark-gtk2\wireshark.exe and make sure it starts. s
Run >
C:\wireshark\packaging\nsis\wireshark-win32-wireshark-major-minor-version:[].x-myprotocol123.exe
to test your new installer.
Further as a general statement please add that if the Visual C++ installation
or the SDK or the Service Pack upgrades constantly fail, that
