--
The build process of Wireshark, specially when libwireshark.so.0 gets modified,
takes a long time. When doing minor changes to the framework, this rebuild time
is annoyingly long.
I have made a configure option called --enable-buildlean which will make only
the basic dissectors like file, frame, eth, ethertype, ip, arp, icmp and tcp.
As a side effect, it also removes a lot of analyzers from the GUI.
My traintrip takes 60 minutes. A recompile after just a touch of a dissector or
a piece in the UI takes 7 minutes, most time spend in CCLD of libwireshark.
With the --enabled-buildlean option, it takes less than 40 seconds. This makes
it worth doing development work again!
I will upload the diff to git once this bug is committed.
