I am trying to install Flutter. I already downloaded the SDK, setup Android Studio and all necessary tools. The problem I am facing is regarding Android License Status Unknown. After reading up on the issue here. Running flutter doctor -v gives me the following information:

Following one of the comments from the github discussion (link above), I decided to copy all the required libraries manually and update the CLASSPATH variable in sdkmanager.sh script. Here are the files I downloaded following the suggestions here. The files downloaded were:
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 69409 Oct 24 2009 activation.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 27156 Dec 27 2018 istack-commons-runtime.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 128076 Sep 12 2018 jaxb-api.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 157148 May 18 2018 jaxb-core.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 1017695 Jan 2 2019 jaxb-impl.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 120605 Jan 2 2019 jaxb-jxc.jar
-rw-r--r-- 1 zerocool users 903197 Jan 2 2019 jaxb-xjc.jar
After modifying the CLASSPATH I have the following:
CLASSPATH=$APP_HOME/lib/dvlib-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jimfs-1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/jsr305-1.3.9.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/repository-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/j2objc-annotations-1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/layoutlib-api-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/gson-2.3.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpcore-4.2.5.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-logging-1.1.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-compress-1.12.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/annotations-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/error_prone_annotations-2.0.18.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/animal-sniffer-annotations-1.14.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpclient-4.2.6.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/commons-codec-1.6.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/common-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/kxml2-2.3.0.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/httpmime-4.1.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/annotations-12.0.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/sdklib-26.0.0-dev.jar:$APP_HOME/lib/guava-22.0.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/activation.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/jaxb-api.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/jaxb-impll.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/jaxb-xjc.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/istack-commons-runtime.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/jaxb-core.jar:/home/zerocool/Android/Sdk/tools/jaxb_lib/jaxb-jxc.jar
This did not solve the issue as expected and flutter doctor -v still complains about the license. Trying to run sdkmanager --update or sdkmanager --android-licenses throws a NullPointerException as given below:

Not sure what should be my possible move after this. I am not ready to reinstall or remove my current JDK though (I'm afraid anything dependent on JDK 11 might crash if I remove it). Some assistance will be greatly appreciated.
