Well I like the idea of PlayOnLinux but so far I'm 0/2 in actually getting anything to install.

I'm on Fedora 16 x86_64 trying to install Torchlight. I'm getting similar errors that I got when trying to install BattleField 2, namely segmentation faults and the wizard completing without actually installing anything.

Here's the console output:

First, you need to install icotool

Well first of all, I installed from the provided Yum repository. It's expected when installing that way that the package brings in all needed dependencies. For Fedora someone should add "icoutils" to the package dependencies.

Second, after installing the icoutils package (which provides icotool) I still had the same problem.

What is the problem exactly?     

Basically all the segfaulting and not installing.

I'm guessing the installer (helper) script is out of date, same as BattleField 2. I did a POL manual install and installed the requirements msvc2008 and msxml3 and I was able to get it installed. It still doesn't work but at least it's a wine problem and not a POL problem.

Thanks,
Richard
