Upgrade SDK deps so modern Linux distros work.

I can't use the simulator and thus connectiq on Fedora 30. I assume all modern distros are affected because libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0 is way too old to be included or even available on current generation distributions.

Please update your deps or better yet compile the simulator statically so it doesn't require ancient libraries.

Facing the same issue. Workaround: run the SDK within Docker or the likes:

- https://github.com/kalemena/docker-connectiq (an elaborate project)

- https://github.com/cedric-dufour/connectiq-sdk-docker (as simple as it gets)

$ ldd bin/sdkmanager | grep not
libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0 => not found
libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0.so.0 => not found
libjpeg.so.8 => not found

libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=866632 / tracker.debian.org/.../webkitgtk

libjpeg8: https://packages.qa.debian.org/libj/libjpeg8.html

libjavascriptcoregtk is only available in oldoldstable (stretch): https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0

In other words, ConnectIQ is totally unusable for Linux.

Is there an update on this? I was about to get back to CIQ after a couple of years, this is disappointing.

I finally found a way. Make sure you have an aur helper like yay installed.
- yay -S webkitgtk2-bin
- ./sdkmanager

Any update? I can´t get it working on Arch Linux, also saying `./sdkmanager: error while loading shared libraries: libwebkitgtk-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory`.

I've tried installing this old library for hours, but still couldn't get around it.
