Tycho/Maven Package: The launcher was unable to locate its companion shared library [message #1864523]

My maven tycho <eclipse-repository> output in Red Hat 8 *looks* like a success: I have a repository directory populated with the following:

artifacts.jar binary/ content.jar features/ plugins/
artifacts.xml.xz content.xml.xz p2.index

1. I unzipped the file in binary and moved the executable to the repository directory.

I made a .ini file in the repository directory with the following:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.6.200.v20210416-2027.jar
--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86_64_3.116.100.v20210602-2209
-vm
/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-11.0.14.1.1-6.el8.x86_64/

I made a configurations directory with config.ini inside:
eclipse.product=org.eclipse.epp.package.rcp.product
osgi.splashPath=platform\:/base/plugins/org.eclipse.epp.package.common
org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator.configUrl=file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
osgi.bundles.defaultStartLevel=4
eclipse.application=org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench
osgi.bundles=reference\:file\:org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator_1.4.0.v20210315-2228.jar@1\:start
eclipse.p2.data.area=@config.dir/../p2/
eclipse.p2.profile=epp.package.rcp
osgi.framework=file\:plugins/org.eclipse.osgi_3.16.300.v20210525-1715.jar
osgi.framework.extensions=reference\:file\:org.eclipse.osgi.compatibility.state_1.2.400.v20210401-1438.jar

When I try to run the executable I get the error "The launcher was unable to locate its companion shared library".

Thanks for any help!
