Wine errors that I don't understand.

Tried to run the pesterchum app using wine, because I don't feel like trying to compile QT4 again, after this afternoon's random error near the end of it. I managed to get this far, with it installed and everything, but trying to load the application itself pulls up this when I try to load it. A google search brought up this link: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=258992 ; but the thing went over my head, and I'm not sure it's totally related to my problem.

[karkat@karmiarch ~]$ /home/karkat/.wine/drive_c/Pesterchum/pesterchum.exe
0064:err:ole:start_rpcss Failed to start RpcSs service
0024:fixme:ntdll:NtQuerySystemInformation (0x00000032,0x32eb38,0x00000004,(nil)) stub
wine: Call from 7BC25D98 to unimplemented function ntdll.dll.RtlCreateTagHeap, aborting
0024:err:module:LdrInitializeThunk "kernelbase.dll" failed to initialize, aborting
0024:err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Initializing dlls for L"C:\\Pesterchum\\pesterchum.exe" failed, status 80000100
[karkat@karmiarch ~]$ 

If anyone knows how to fix this or why this is happening, I'd greatly appreciate it!
Thanks!

Re: Wine errors that I don't understand.

The program tries to use a function that isn't implemented in Wine and thus it fails.

There's a slight chance that this is an issue with your prefix, e.g. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25742 try a fresh Wine prefix

FWIW and TLDR compiling qt4 is likely to be more fruitful... if you really must use this unmaintained chatclient.
