Bug ID: 43506
           Summary: Adobe Air installer does not make any progress unless
                    winetricks ie8 is installed (or quiet mode is used)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.12
          Hardware: x86
               URL: https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/821
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: download, Installer
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

      Distribution: ---

This was pointed out to me in
https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/821. I can confirm that. Doing:

$ winetricks -q adobeair

works fine. However,

$ winetricks adobeair

hangs on initializing. If `winetricks -q ie8` is run beforehand, then
`winetricks adobeair` will work.
