tcpflow since version 1.6.1 doesn't require nor use python anymore because the only plugin which is used it (scan_python.cpp) was excluded from build.

Anyway, the configure complains like:

  *** Cannot find python library.
  *** Please install python-devel to enable scanner python.
  ...
  configure: *** You have missing libraries. To install them:
  configure: *** Red Hat: sudo yum install  python-devel  python-devel
  configure: *** Fedora:  sudo dnf install  python-devel  python-devel
  configure: *** Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install  libpython2.7-dev libpython2.7-dev
  configure: *** MacOS:   sudo port install  python27 python27

which is absolutley missleading anyone who tries to build it.

Shall it be cleaned up?

Here I've cleaned it up.
