BTW, I noticed that "packet-ncp2222.c" is not removed when I do a "make distclean" (neither is "register.c"). Is that correct?

IIRC, only maintainerclean removes the files that require Python to build.

tarball have Python installed in order to build Ethereal.

Ah, okay. So I guess "maintainer-clean" is what I want when I want to go back to a (completely) clean CVS environment.

So: does "packet-ncp2222.c" belong in the MAINTAINERCLEANFILES in "Makefile.am" (where it lives) or "epan/Makefile.am" (where it is built from)? The attached patch does the latter.
