Hi,

seems that some other problem occurs while building wireshark (19328) ...

File not found - AUTHORS-SHORT

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'xcopy' : return code '0x4'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~4\VC98\BIN\NMAKE.EXE' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

Any idea? Thanks

P.S. AUTHORS-SHORT is NOT missing, it is in the right place I think... This error occurs either if I update my old version, or if I download the HEAD in a new directory and try to compile there...
