Since you downloaded the libraries on your own rather than by "nmake -f
makefile.nmake setup" you most likely also need to edit your config.nmake
file and adjust the WIRESHARK_LIBS to pinpoint to where you downloaded the
libraries.

Once WIRESHARK_LIBS points to the correct location, you should be able to
run "nmake -f makefile.nmake process_libs" that will then process the
downloaded libraries preparing them for the build
(extracting/decompressing/whatever).

When that is done, run "nmake -f makefile.nmake verify_tools" to ensure that
nothing else is missing.

Then (if you passed the steps above), you should be able to compile and
link!
