Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Ways to make Wireshark tarball

Hi list,

In autotools times (i.e., 2.6.x) I was used to run:

$ make dist

to get a Wireshark source code tarball.
It looks like CMake wants to offer something similar

$ cmake ../ -DWS_SOURCE_DIR=“/tmp/wireshark”
$ make dist

But this fails over unreachable target ‘package_source’.
So, is this even supposed to work? 
It uses cmake/modules/Dist.cmake, a module gone from the master.
Do we now fall back to tools/git-export-release.sh?
What am I missing here?

Thanks,
Jaap
