Bug ID: 49887
           Summary: "EA Desktop" installer fails.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.17
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

I spent some time looking into why this fails, and there's a couple of
problems.

1) The installer text fails to display, so you can't see what it's telling you
during installation, for instance how windows 7 (at-least SP1) is unsupported.

2) After a few seconds of installing the installer silently exits, this is due
to a custom action with the function name "InitializeSession" fails, with a
different return code every time.  Maybe it relies on stack memory being zeroed
out, I'm not sure.

3) Treating the action failure as a success gets us a bit further, they start
their service, which seems to crash during initialization.  I'm looking at this
now.
