I've previously used the PC Kindle reader perfectly fine via wine. However, it's no longer working with the current wine 4.17-1.

If I revert to a previous version, e.g. wine 4.17-1 or earlier, it launches fine. I don't entirely understand wine, but are these DLLs missing from the latest version of wine? I also tried searching for them in winetricks, but couldn't see anything obvious.

Will presumably be fixed once wine 4.19 hits the repos

Thanks V1del! For future reference, how did you find the bug?

I read changelogs of projects of interest to me, and it just so happens that this one is listed as fixed for 4.19: https://www.winehq.org/announce/4.19
But more generally actively looking for bug reports can usually happen if you google for the non program specific parts of the error message and/or check the bug trackers (so in this case search for the strings:
err:module:import_dll Library ... (which is needed ... not found

Thanks @V1del. In this case Googling that string didn't work for me, or at least pulled up too many false positives. Thanks for the hints though. I'll check the changelog next time.
