Ehmm... I had read but I thought steamwebhelper AND lcgol counted as TWO
applications not as a single application... :?

It would seem that the first workaround avoids the steamwebhelper crash but it
gives me the impression that the process don't respond (while lcgol still
doesn't work).

Second workaround has no effect for both apps.


However I don't think this problem is a duplicate of the ones you mentioned
because it did not exist before mid-November, even without workaround, while
that bug has been open in 2012.

In other words until about mid-November the situation was:

 - steamwebhelper worked fine in a completely clean prefix (meaning without
installing anything that steam didn't install automatically) having bugs 45121.
 - lcgol worked fine in a completely clean prefix (meaning without installing
anything that steam didn't install automatically) having bugs 46155 and 50332.


Since about mid-November the situation is:

 - steamwebhelper and lcgol crashes in a completely clean prefix (meaning
without installing anything that steam didn't install automatically).
 - steamwebhelper doesn't crash in a clean prefix using 'winetricks corefonts'
but it seems do not have bug 45121 (or it's frozen and does not spend cpu
time).


Of course I've excluded a regression trying several versions of wine including
those where the problem did not exist and, since the problem is reproducible in
a live older than mid-November, I thought that the cause must be an update by
steam (of course I can't be completely sure because steam can't be downgraded).
