Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] checklicenses.py

I thought I'd try to cut down on some of the "noise" created by checklicenses.py and creating exceptions for files that obviously don't need a license header (COPYING/AUTHORS files in plugins for example).  I thought it would simply be a matter of running the script, seeing the output, and then tweaking to add the necessary exceptions.
However, I can't seem to run this on Windows.  Is it possible to run on Windows? (quick googling appears to say no).  I have a lubuntu setup, but my skills are weak there.  I made a few attempts with sudo apt-get, but that also didn't seem to be able to get the script to work.
 
Any suggestions?
