Bug#852765: playonlinux: Nothing happens when I press the run button

[Tom Epperly]

Package: playonlinux
Version: 4.2.10-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
I recently did a "apt-get dist-upgrade" on my system.  I use
PlayOnLinux to run League of Legends.

If I invoke playonlinux, select "League of Legends" from the list of
applications, and then click the run button, there is no evidence that
a process is starting up. Normally, there is output in the terminal
window as LOL starts up. I've also tried running Steam (the Windows
version) via PlayOnLinux, and it also shows no signs of starting up.

The outcome I expected was text in the terminal indicating that it's
trying to start up LOL or steam via Wine.

I've also watched the active processes via "top", and there is no sign
of wine processes launching.

Tom
