export WINEARCH=win32
export WINEPREFIX=~/SWTOR

I installed swtor_setup.exe, the launcher updated twice, I entered my username
and password, got the error:

I closed WINE and disabled BitRaider:

I downloaded all the game data:

I launched swtor_fix.exe and launcher.exe again:

See attached debug information.

I note I originally had 3 debug logs (swtor_fix, the launcher BEFORE the 17
minute wait and AFTER the wait). For the purposes of submitting this bug report
I have appended all 3 of them together and added text to separate them.  Please
do a find for "17 minute wait" to be taken to that line in the text.

Side note - I started using Linux in late August and have been trying to get
SWTOR running (without the 17-minute wait) since then so that should give you
an indication of how determined I am to find a fix and contribute to the
community.

Please feel free to e-mail me at [e-mail] if you have any
questions, suggestions for things I can try or additional debug info.

I have tried to be as thorough as possible in my findings and this initial bug
report.

Thank you for your time.

Cheers,
Jeremy
