If i try to install the rpm package i get errors about missing zlib:
sudo dnf install ./webos-dev-manager-1.99.13-1.x86_64.rpm

- nothing provides zlib (>=1.2.11) needed by webos-dev-manager-1.99.13-1.x86_64 from @commandline
You can try to add to command line:
--skip-broken to skip uninstallable packages```
The manager operates from the DEB package in Kubuntu 25.04. The program is installed without a shortcut and can be started from the installer.
You can just use
sudo rpm -ivh --nodeps ./*path to the rpm file*
that combined with sparately installing webkit2gtk4.1-devel seems to have done the trick! haven't tried to actually use the software yet though, but at least it installs and opens.
WebOS Dev Manager works in Fedora KDE (webos-dev-manager_1.99.16_amd64.AppImage).
