Office 2016 stopped working after upgrading to CrossOver 25.0 on Linux/Ubuntu

Symptoms: Nothing happens after clicking on Word 2016 or Excel 2016
Fix: Downgrade to 24.0.6

Deleting bottle and reinstalling Office 2016 did not work. Office 2016 installs and starts but cannot be activated, possibly because installing Internet Explorer 7 or 8 did not work.

You can downgrade and install, then activate, as a workaround. However, there are other issues with 25 on linux to be aware of. For example, when in Microsoft Word, if I open the reference manager, I get an 'out of memory or out of disk space' message dialog and the addin fails to open. I have not put a ticket in yet, but plan to.
