games - Diablo 2 installer in WINE hangs on EULA (EULA blank and cannot click on Agree)


I am trying to install Diablo 2 inside WINE on Ubuntu using the Downloader from battle.net


It works fine at first but gets stuck on the EULA: The EULA window is blank and I cannot click on "Agree".



On further research, it turns out that WINE needs Wine Gecko to display HTML, and for some reason this is not shipped by default.


Go here to download the latest Wine Gecko (32 bit):
https://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko


Install it like this:


wine msiexec /i wine_gecko-2.47-x86.msi

Afterwards the installer will show the EULA and allow to proceed.
