The config.nmake defines general settings like

WIRESHARK_LIBS=C:\wireshark-$(WIRESHARK_TARGET_PLATFORM)-libs-1.6

This is useful on most machines. But I have to build Wireshark on a
machine where the system partition is on drive B:

My build steps are:
- getting the Wireshark files with SVN from
http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/releases/wireshark-1.6.0
- setup the build environment like WIRESHARK_TARGET_PLATFORM
- call nmake -f Makefile.nmake

Is there a way to get the wiresharklibs to a different location without
modifying the files that I get from the repository?

Yes: Set a value foe WIRESHARK_LIBS in the environment and then
do nmake /E ...



set WIRESHARK_LIBS=...
nmake /E ....
