MQ Explorer - Could not load SWT library

Question

Installed IBM MQ 8.0.0.4 developer instance in Linux VM (Centos).

When launching MQ explorer, using command strmqcfg (getting the following error).

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2016-01-14 13:33:43.226

I see online that there is download of SWT libraries for AIX. http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21631478

Is there a similar download for Linux CentOS. Appreciate any help. Is the resolution different for CentOS.

Here is machine info: java -version

Use yum to install these packages:

gtk2 libXtst xorg-x11-fonts-Type1

Some graphical pieces of WebSphere Application Server have the same SWT dependencies -- the way the prereqs are documented for RHEL7 is here:
