Well, one way that might work, (but this is a bit of a hack), would be to
temporarily do this:
mv /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/python3
ln -sf /usr/bin/python2 /usr/bin/python
Compile Wireshark, then when done either move python3 back to python or change
the symlink:
ln -sf /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

That is a good question. Ultimately it would be better just to get Wireshark to
work with python3 and not have to worry about this.
