Has anyone found any solution or workaround for working under linux?

I seem to have the same thing - got Eclipse 2019-12 (4.14.0) and (through Eclipse) System Workbench for STM32 installed ok (running Mint 18.1), but I can’t get a single damned firmware to install, whatever I’ve tried. When creating a new project, I get as far as the “Project Firmware configuration” view, and none of the StdPeriph nor Cube HAL firmware options work. I select an option, I get the “Target firmware has not been found locally ..” text in read, click the “Download target firmware” button, agree to the “License Agreement” pop-up then ... nothing. It almost immediately vanishes and nothing further happens, no firmware.

I have tried copying both the zip and the unzipped versions of STM32Cube_FW_F0_V1.11.0 (downloaded from ST) into the Rc6 “firmwares” folders, under various names, with no result.
I have tried adding it to Eclipse as something to install from a local file with no result (fairly obvious now as it’s firmware not a plugin, which is why it complained about no .jar file ... but I was trying anything I could think of).
I have tried modifying Eclipse Network Connection settings with no result (now back on “Native” as the default) - but then the Marketplace works fine, as did the System Workbench install, so this seems more like an issue with the firmware stuff than a network issue.
I have tried running Eclipse as root (!), with no result. (Same non-results after clicking the “Download target firmware” button / agreeing to the “License Agreement”. Same failure to identify downloaded files.)
I’m out of further ideas, whether my own or what found from the forums or google.
