            Bug ID: 59336
           Summary: Ultima Online Outlands - Launcher displays black box
           Product: Wine
           Version: 11.1
          Hardware: x86-64
               URL: https://patch.uooutlands.com/download
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

1.) Download launcher from https://uooutlands.com/connecting/ (Direct link in
description).
2.) Attempt to run launcher
3.) Note folder creation permissions (Expected)
4.) Attempt to run launcher as root (Note: Due to this step, you probably want
to test this in a sandboxed environment just in case).
5.) Notice launcher is a plain black box.  

Whilst the elements can still be selected on the box if the cursor is correctly
placed, they are invisible.

Hello,

Never run wine as root.

If WINE has permissions issues, then that must be fixed first, as Windows
program should be oblivious to Linux permissions and only write to files in the
user prefix, to which the user should always have permission to do.

Regards.

... So explain what the real issue is that you're trying to workaround with
root.

Added the missing log.

The installer failed due to a permission issue. Running as root subsequently
passed this issue, allowing the game to install, and subsequently run as
expected.

However, this does not resolve the original issue of the missing UI element,
instead being shown a black (clickable) box.
