Hi,
While trying to compile 1.6.3 from wireshark-1.6.3.tar.bz2 on Windows, compiler complains that i have svnversion.h missing. Forcing
nmake -f Makefile.nmake svnversion.h
gives...
rm -f svnversion.h
        perl make-version.pl
This is not a SVN build.
Thus, svnversion.h is not generated.

It shouldn't be generated because version.conf should say is_release=1 (see r38933). But it should be present in the release tarball.

What am i missing?
(and yes, i did distclean before build)

Oh, shoot.  Looks like svnversion.h is removed by clean and/or dist-clean.
