Hi Anders,

Are you sure? I’m concerned about the generation of plugin.c. From reading plugins/Makefile.am.inc
it seems that it only generates for dissector plugins (keyword: plugin), not for wiretap plugins (keyword: plugins_wtap)

#
plugin.c: $(REGISTER_SRC_FILES) $(top_srcdir)/tools/make-dissector-reg.py
        @echo Making plugin.c
        @$(PYTHON) $(top_srcdir)/tools/make-dissector-reg.py $(srcdir) \
                plugin $(REGISTER_SRC_FILES)


Thanks,
Jaap
