This seems to be an issue in how Python under Wine deals with file descriptors - opening a file with os.open and closing it with os.close causes this error.
The Python source code has a comment indicating that this is handled in a hacky way, using internal structures of the Microsoft CRT.
I'll see if I can achieve the same thing in a different way, but I don't have a way to test under Linux, nor should I technically be spending time on this, this being an unsupported platform and all. Still, I don't like seeing EVE crashing.
Hopefully this gives Wine developers a clue, nonetheless. |

Also, totally send me isk.
You'll need to locate your eve cache folder and adjust this from my settings.
Open a console, and input this:
while true; do rm -r ~/.wine/drive_c/users/murph/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/CCP/EVE/c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility/cache/ships/*; done
This will start a continual loop that is deleting the generated ships cache (only t3s are generated, i think).
Now, in a second console, go start eve your usual way. just to confirm that this makes the game playable. the only issue is when switching to a t3 while at a pos (did not test at a station).
Try changing this loop to:
while true; do rm -r ~/.wine/drive_c/users/murph/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/CCP/EVE/c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility/cache/ships/*.lock; done
That should allow you to see the generated t3 ships. The lock file that is generated is intended to prevent multiple EVE instances from thrashing - both wasting cpu cycles and potentially corrupting the files with simultaneous writes.
I'm trying to find alternatives of dealing with this - worst case I'll disable this if I detect we're running under Wine and you guys have to live with slightly worse performance when multiboxing. |

We should have a potential fix out on Sisi tomorrow afternoon. Fingers crossed... |

I believe the next scheduled client update is on Monday and this fix will be included in that. |
