What would you recommend me? --disable-what ??

There's nothing I can recommend to disable building the documents, because there's no way to disable that.

"--disable-wireshark" should disable the building of Wireshark - but you'll have to re-run the configure script to regenerate the Makefile if you want to build Wireshark.

As Jaap Keuter suggested, "make tshark" might let you build tshark without rebuilding the man pages or Wireshark or any other tools.
