When I will run a panleregression with many observations, I get the following notification:
"The Programm EViewsSVMac.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. You may want to check http://appdb.winehq.org for tips about

As it is stated in the header the version EViews8SV (it is explicitly available for Mac). My Mac runs with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

--- Comment #1 from Andrew Fan andrewsuicune@gmail.com --- Please link the application and state which version of wine you are using, preferably in the bug description. Also, please give a more descriptive description of what the bug is (in the name of the bug) - if you only state the name of the application and don't even state that it crashed, it is unhelpful to people looking through the bug database.

you didn't use the Windows version but some "special" Mac version.

I've had a brief look into the archive. It seems the vendor bundled an ancient Wine version using 'Wineskin'.
--- snip --- $ strings Applications/EViews\ 8SV/EViews8SV.app/Contents/Frameworks/wswine.bundle/lib/libwine.1.0.dylib | grep "wine-1" wine-1.3.33 --- snip ---
--- snip --- $ grep -m1 WINETRICKS_VERSION Applications/EViews\ 8SV/EViews8SV.app/Wineskin.app/Contents/Resources/winetricks
WINETRICKS_VERSION=20110629 --- snip ---
Whatever the vendor did, that is "ported" a very outdated version of Wine is big NO-NO here. This is not supported. You have to contact the vendor and get support there or alternatively use the Windows version.
