                OS: Linux

WARNING:
- The compressed tarball is about 149.9 MiB
- It contains a 6 GB log file (it was difficult to not get it to expand so
quickly and to log it in the first place)
- I recommend anyone only attempt to go through it if they have a lot of RAM,
seriously.
- Since it greatly exceeds the attachment limit, I had to upload it to a cloud
hosting site (namely, mega.nz)

I created a (non-staging) Wine prefix and used winetricks afterwards like so:

    winetricks -q dotnet48 vcrun2017 python27

None of these are required to install the program, but the the program does use
.NET at runtime and MSVC2017 and python27+ are build requirements, so I added
them anyway just to be sure.

After the winetricks and program installation, the program automatically
launches itself but hangs on "Loading extensions" for literally forever -
generating that gigantic log file and it does so somewhat quickly, and my only
means I had of logging it was with &> because my attempts to do so within the
terminal myself just crashes my terminal.

However, Kate (the KDE text editor) CAN read the entirety of the file but it
takes a bit to actually load it initially. As someone unfamiliar with any of
the contents though, there's not much I can say about it aside from that it's
baffling why it would be so large.
