Thanks Juan!
I found the workaround from the Wine FAQ:

6.9.4. Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions
On *NIX systems ICMP ping requires use of raw sockets, which is limited to
super user (root) only. And running Wine as root is a bad idea. Fortunately
newer versions of Linux allow granular permission control to grant only
required permissions to specified files.
To allow Wine opening raw sockets run this command:
sudo setcap cap_net_raw+epi /usr/bin/wine-preloader

Is it better to make the err message like below ?
"""
err:winediag:IcmpCreateFile Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires
