please check that you should have some fixed size X11 fonts installed. 
This is need for the console to run

if you do, and it doesn't work, could you send me the trace generated by
wineconsole --debugmsg +wineconsole winedbg

TIA

The problem is that it worked the first time I ran this installer.

Anyway, where can I check for fixed size X11 fonts ?

[j(a)laptop tmp]$ xlsfonts |grep -i fixed|wc -l
    277
[j(a)laptop tmp]$

Thus I ran wineconsole as you advised. I saw some non organized chars on
my virtual console (as if no line return were used). Here is the trace:
---
[j(a)laptop tmp]$ wineconsole --debugmsg +wineconsole winedbg

unfortunately this is the startup of the wineconsole for the debugger, 
not for the other app
could you retry with
WINEOPTIONS="-debugmsg +wineconsole,+wc_font" winedbg

(if every goes ok, you should get in the trace the error message too)
A+
