Isn't Python also necessary for the Wireshark Python API? (It's disabled

Yes, but here we're talking about whether we have/should have a (hard)
requirement to have Python in order to compile Wireshark (from the
source tarball, which is often different than building from SVN).
Let's make Python a requirement now.
I fully support the idea of not keeping generated files in SVN and in the release tarball.

Cheers,
