Please bear with this long discursive report.
I'm trying to run the CD-ROM version of the OED (Oxford English Dictionary), an old Windows 3.1 app, under WINE.
Currently I have it running successfully on
Ubuntu 18.04 rquint@Maria-Agnesi:~$ uname -a Linux Maria-Agnesi 4.15.0-106-generic #107-Ubuntu SMP Thu Jun 4 11:27:52 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rquint@Maria-Agnesi:~$ wine --version wine-3.0 (Ubuntu 3.0-1ubuntu1)
Ubuntu 19.10 rquint@Cosmic-Box:~$ uname -a Linux Cosmic-Box 5.3.0-59-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 3 15:52:15 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rquint@Cosmic-Box:~$ wine --version wine-4.0.2 (Ubuntu 4.0.2-1)
and
Ubuntu 20.04 rquint@Twenty4:~$ uname -a Linux Twenty4 5.4.0-37-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 3 18:57:02 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rquint@Twenty4:~$ wine --version wine-5.0 (Ubuntu 5.0-3ubuntu1)
On a second Ubuntu 20.04 installation the OED crashes rquint@disco-box:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/OED$ uname -a Linux disco-box 5.4.0-37-generic #41-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jun 3 18:57:02 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux rquint@disco-box:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/OED$ wine --version wine-5.0 (Ubuntu 5.0-3ubuntu1)
I'm attaching the backtrace.txt generated when it crashes as backtrace.txt.disco-box. Also, it may be significant that when I first ran the app on Twenty4, an almost identical backtrace.txt was generated, but despite the usual definition of insanity, I tried starting it several times and after three or four attempts it ran without problems.
