IBM installation manager cannot be launched in fedora 17(64bit)

Here's the error msg goes when i try to run the IBM installation manager:

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load SWT library. Reasons: 
    /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/bundles/447/1/.cp/libswt-pi-gtk-3659.so (libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
    swt-pi-gtk (Not found in java.library.path)
    /tmp/swtlib-32/libswt-pi-gtk-3659.so (libXtst.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)
    /tmp/swtlib-32/libswt-pi-gtk.so (/tmp/swtlib-32/lib/libswt-pi-gtk.so.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

However, those files does exist. I also already have SWT lib installed. Any one have experience on this issue before?

This was helpful for steering me in the right direction for solving the problem on rhel 6.5 on IBM power. i installed the equivalent packages using the .ppc instead of .ppc64 files (since the installer is PPC) and then i had to add these 2 lines at the bottom of the install.ini according to ibm support article swg21688528 as follows:

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.useCairo=false

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.cairoGraphics=false

I had this issue when tried to install CM on Linux Fedora 17 x86_64 bits and this command solved my issue

yum install gtk2.i686 gtk2-engines.i686 PackageKit-gtk-module.i686 PackageKit-gtk-module.x86_64 libcanberra-gtk2.x86_64 libcanberra-gtk2.i686

After execute it i can run interactive installation.

I don't remember about Installation Manager but for WAS installation launching setup.jar itself did help:

java -jar setup.jar

IBM Installation Manager can only run if 32bit GTK components installed. Here are the packages I install on Redhat 64bit in order to run IBM Installation Manager:

Install required packages for IBM Installation Manager UI on Redhat x64

Should be similar packages in Fedora.
