Installing ies4linux on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala by just running “./ies4linux” might show some warnings such as:
IEs4Linux 2 is developed to be used with recent Wine versions (0.9.x). It seems that you are using an old version. It’s recommended that you update your wine to the latest version (Go to: winehq.com).
In my case it showed the above text, which seems to be a warning, and run the UI but then got stuck and didn’t complete anything.
To overcome this issue simply run the installation without the GTK based UI in a terminal window:
./ies4linux –no-gui
That’s it. Works like a charm.

It’s the installation itself that’s giving me problems.
