Hello!

We analyse CORBA connections with Wireshark during integration.
To enable the integrators to build a dissector plugin at hoc without the whole
Wireshark source tree, it would be nice if you incorporate this patch into
Wireshark.

Afterward the idl2wrs.sh.in must be moved to idl2wrs.sh again:
svn mv tools/idl2wrs.sh.in tools/idl2wrs.sh

Thanks
Carsten



This patch adds some new files:
- %prefix/bin/mk_plugin - generate a plugin (packet-prot.{la,.so}) from
packet-prot.c
- %prefix/bin/mk_plugin_idl - generate a plugin (packet-iface.{la,.so}) from
iface.idl
- man pages for the scripts mentioned above
- %prefix/lib/wireshark/Makefile.plugin{,_idl} - makefiles used by the scripts
mentioned above

Further changes:
- idl2wrs is useless without the python scripts, hence these python scripts are
installed to %prefix/lib/wireshark/python.
- ftypes.h: improved include statement of slab.h
- wireshark.spec.in: Added a subpackage wireshark-devel.

TODO:
- The patch has been tested on Redhat Linux 8.0 and SuSE Linux 10.0 (both intel 
  architecture).
  It should be tested on other platforms too.
- Because I am not a native english speaker, the docs should be revised to
cause 
  no head ache.
