Removing dye stains from any natural fiber can be difficult. Linen has a few things about it that makes it even worse:
1. It gets dark when wet. You might not be able to tell how well you are doing once you start applying products.
2. It resists bleaching. That means the products you might usually be successful in using will not necessarily work as well. Then, if you become impatient and use too much....BANG...they may kick in all at once and cause color damage.
If you have the skills to remove dye stains from cotton, rayon, and viscose, those same skills will come in handy with this one, as long as you understand the above issues.
Crocking from dye on clothing, as long as it wasn't wet, can be a bit easier to remove that a liquid dye stain, but this still can be a risky task to take on.
If you haven't taken dye stains out of natural cellulose fibers before, this wouldn't be the one I'd use for on the job training.
