Timeout this is not a bug. It's because you have run wine in the past as root. This causes some of your wine configuration files to owned by root instead of the normal user. You can fix this by changing the permissions of the .wine directory and its contents. Run the following command and replace username with your user name:

$ sudo chown -R username:username /home/username/.wine

Hope it helps.
