Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Is it a good idea to use rdps.py instead of rdps.c?

Hi,

I found that rdps.c was replaced by rdps.py. The change log says

    "This makes it easier to cross-compile Wireshark on Windows."

However rdps.py depends on Python, which is not an absolute requirement for building previous Wireshark.
I do not understand why cross compiling rdps.c (which is a simple C file) is a problem.

Thanks!
