If you are using 0.99.1+ (maybe) or SVN version you may have this
problem!
This problem crept in several months ago when the python input file for
.\dissectors was renamed (maake-dissector-reg.py) and moved to a
sub-directory. This change was also made in the .\plugins\profinet &
sbus directories. On Win32 platform, this problem can be corrected by
either of two solution:
change
@$(PYTHON) ../../tools/make-dissector-reg.py . dissectors
$(DISSECTOR_SRC)
to
@$(PYTHON) "../../tools/make-dissector-reg.py" . dissectors
$(DISSECTOR_SRC)
or
@$(PYTHON) ..\..\tools\make-dissector-reg.py . dissectors
$(DISSECTOR_SRC)
This still needs to be corrected in SVN & releases.
