The previous URL to web.archive caused the webpage, rather than the file to be downloaded... Invariably leading to an md5sum error. I fished the correct URL out of the web.archive page and added it. That seems to fix the problem with this script not continuing beyond this point.

For some reason, PlayOnMac couldn't download GDIPlus from Web Archive, so I updated the script to use WinXP Embedded "gdiplus.dll" version instead.

While trying to install Office 2010, I get a files mismatch when PlayOnLinux tries to install gdiplus:

It seems that the listed link is dead:

https://web.archive.org/web/20140615000000/http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/b/c/abc45517-97a0-4cee-a362-1957be2f24e1/WindowsXP-KB975337-x86-ENU.exe

This seems to be related to this issue:
https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/1869

My improvement uses a bit newer capture from web.archive.org but it is still exactly the same executable as before.

Message

The current URL is dead, Winetricks changed its code to get gdiplus file from the Windows 7 SP 1.

The current Microsoft web page allowing to download the XP gdiplus leads to a Error 404...

 

This script fix the issue by using one URL to the website www.archive.org (Windows XP's version).

 

Note: this POL function is often used by the function: POL_GoG_install.

Can't get the updated link to work either. Have tried using it to download and install HoMM3 from GOG on my Mac, but to no avail. Can you please host the file somewhere and create an altered version of the script?

I've had the issue with the dead URL as well, even though it worked before. I've managed to recover the file from a different machine and uploaded it to https://archive.org/details/WindowsXP-KB975337-x86-ENU . The file can then be copied to ~/.PlayOnLinux/ressources/ and then you can run the script with no error.
