I followed the step by step guide located at http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html for building Wireshark on the Win32 platform. When I got to steps prescribed in section 2.2.10, I ran into a problem with the file version.conf. The log from the build is as follows:

Microsoft (R) Incremental Linker Version 8.00.50727.42

/out:rdps.exe

/debug

rdps.obj

        rdps print.ps ps.c

        rm -f svnversion.h

        perl make-version.pl

Version configuration file version.conf not found.  Using defaults.

This is a build from SVN (or a SVN snapshot).

Stop.

Can someone shed some light on how I could fix this issue?

There appears to be something wrong with your perl environment. Can you post the output of "nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools".
