I did install wine-devel, apparently successfully, which I then uninstalled.

WINEPREFIX="/Users/magill/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/LOTRO-4" wine ~/Library/Application\ Support/CrossOver/Bottles/LOTRO-4/drive_c/Program\ Files/PyLotRO/pylotro.exe

**** Correct, I have not installed X11, and therefore no X server. However, I thought PyLotRO bypassed that issue by using Python.
