[SOLVED][wine] crash of wine at startup

with wine 1.7.30-1 ( multilib version ) I notice a crash at startup when I want to run windows programs :

*** Error in `program_name': free(): invalid next size (fast): 0x7d9d72f8 ***
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00721730 at address 0x7ffdf000:0x00404066 (thread 0023), starting debugger...

winecfg can run but I am unable to run windows program with the command "wine name_of_the_program"

something is wrong with this wine package

Re: [SOLVED][wine] crash of wine at startup

I found the solution,

it was a strange bug in X server related to icon theme cursor,

in /usr/share/icons/default/index.theme I have set a custom icon theme for the X server :

[Icon Theme]
Inherits=Oxygen_White

when I saw the word "libXcursor" in the backtrace it gives me an idea :  avoid my setting and set the original icon theme :

[Icon Theme]
Inherits=Adwaita

and now the bug is gone, wine runs without problems !

it's very strange that a valid icon theme ( Oxygen_White ) can trigger such a severe bug
