    Suggest to install dosbox.
    
    DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library. DOSBox also emulates
    CPU:286/386 realmode/protected mode. It's used to replace Wine's Virtual
    8086 Mode. Since Linux 4.1 VM86 is disabled also on i386, so DOSBox is now
    always required for running DOS programs with Wine.
    
    For Wine being able to utilize DOSBox wine32 needs to be installed,
    therefore adding the dependency there.
    
    The dependency is versioned because the needed compatibility code is only
    available since dosbox 0.74-4.1, and because dosbox satisfies dependencies
    from foreign architectures only since 0.74-4.2.
    
    Using Suggests (instead of Recommends) because dosbox pulls in some
    additional dependencies, but isn't needed at all for modern applications.
    
    Closes-in-stable: #792125
