--- Comment #2 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

reading the referenced forum thread it boils down to broken host dependencies
and broken Wine package, suggesting this is rather 'INVALID'.
Also Appdb shows no such problems (= worked for a long time with older Wine
versions).

There is no indication of a crash here, removing this to avoid confusing other
users.
And no, 'err:ole:CoInitializeEx' in terminal is benign.

OP talks about the installation part - not even running the actual game:

--- snip ---
ballsystemlord at vian1:~/.wine/dosdevices/d:> wine LaunchBFII.exe
--- snip ---

-> 'LaunchBFII.exe' = installer on CD/ISO.

--- quote ---
Unfortunately, after starting the app and hitting the install button it gives
me a message and quits.
--- quote ---

The message is displayed when the installation is finalized on *any* system
setup, it's completely harmless.

--- snip ---
<install media>\GameData\Setup.exe
--- snip ---

I even downloaded 'Star Wars Battle Front 2' using a distributed backup (which
aims for proper preservation of the digital cultural heritage *g*).

Installs fine, runs fine.
Resolving 'INVALID'.

For documentation purpose:
