Bug ID: 45958
           Summary: The winbind package is necessary to create a Wine
                    prefix but it is not included as a dependency.
           Product: Packaging
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor

When creating a new Wine prefix with:
$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.test1 winecfg

Terminal output always shows an error as follows (1 line only):

err:winediag:SECUR32_initNTLMSP ntlm_auth was not found or is outdated. Make
sure that ntlm_auth >= 3.0.25 is in your path. Usually, you can find it in the
winbind package of your distribution.

The package winbind needs to be installed with the Wine installation.

System:
Kubuntu 18.04.01 (x64)
Wine version 3.17

Winbind is not needed for wineprefix creation; the wineprefix is created
without it. It is not needed for most applications, which is why Wine packages
do not pull it in as a dependency.
