Yeah, that was my next plan when I get a chance.

I've had my laptop for awhile so it may very well have some packages installed that are no longer needed.  That said, 
if xsltproc isn't required, then it should probably no longer be mentioned in the Developer Guide as a requirement: 
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html#ChSetupAsciidoctor.  If there's a chocolatey nsis 
package available, then it might be worth mentioning that in the Developer Guide though: 
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html#_optional_create_a_wireshark_installer.
