Thanks. You should probably remove that upload, though. I gather you have to purchase access for $10 at https://www.pathofexile.com/purchase/
But that installer does not crash for me with either wine-1.4 or current git. Does it still crash for you with current wine on a clean wineprefix?
There's no harm in leaving it up; the installer does not allow you to play the game in any way.
Another interesting bug that this game (the downloader for it) exposes is that the "allocating space" step takes hours under wine, whereas in windows it takes only a few seconds.
