hi, I'm a Linux user too and I run zorro in wineHQ. Apparently it works but caution because I had run the same optimization with the same data (zorro S 1.74.8 script workshop 6 StartDate 2012 EndDate 2016) in a linux box and in a Windows pc but the results was completly different. So I stoped to trust in data produced by zorro under wineHQ.

my conf is ubuntu 16.04, playonlinux, arch 32bit, wine ver 1.9.24, zorro 1.74.8

finally I removed zorro from winehq
