Hi,
I see that configure option '--disable-idl2wrs' no longer works for 1.8
version. I would like ask what is behind this change? And without
knowing exactly what this script does I see that wireshark_be.py and
wireshark_gen.py are not installed at the same time... So I'm confused.
Looks like this came in this revision:
http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/viewvc?revision=39985&view=revision
The commit log doesn't list a reason, but I suppose it might be for
simplicity (really, why have an option?).
But, I'm not entirely sure it makes sense to install the script at all:
its purpose is to generate dissectors which is a development task (for
which you need the source code) not something someone would be doing on
an installed system.
Balint?
