[Buildroot] [PATCH v2] wireshark: new package

[Baruch Siach]

This is only the bare minimum needed to build the textual tshark utility.
Support for more options, including the wireshark GUI, can be added later.

Changes v1 -> v2:
	* Patch configure.in and enable autoreconf, instead of overriding
	  $prefix
	* Remove --with-sysroot as suggested by Arnout Vandecappelle

The tshark RPATH is still cluttered with local build paths. Adding
--libdir=/usr/lib doesn't solve this. Any suggestion?

This works, but cannot be submitted upstream. Do you think you can come
up with a patch suitable for upstream inclusion?

Note that the OE patch is not better than your proposal:
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded/tree/recipes/wireshark/files/fix-configure.patch.
It is also not suitable for upstream.

Well, the ultimate solution would probably be to add a --disable-usr configure 
option, like the existing --disable-usr-local. I see if I can find time to 
work on this. I'm no autotools expert.

Dear Baruch Siach,

This really shouldn't be needed. No autotools-based package that I'm
aware of needs this. If the default include flags are not good, you
pass additional CFLAGS/CPPFLAGS, that's the way autoconf works.

So basically, the whole idea of adding /usr/include forcefully is
stupid and should be removed, IMO.
