Well that's why the sandbox is there.
I install Wine for one specific user account that has suitably restricted
access rights. I do not want wine or wine installer to go outside that
brief.
I want wine on this system so that I can use on or two bits of windows
software , I DO NOT want it to start thinking it really IS windows and
start taking over my computer for me.
That is the fundamental reason why I use Linux and not M$.
