Fedora 41 cannot install rpm because of zlib
Describe the bug Unable to install fedora rpm packages due to zlib problem.
Please note, that I have both zlib-ng-compat and zlib-ng-compat-devel installed.
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Download webos-dev-manager-1.99.5-1.x86_64.rpm
- Try install rpm with Software center.
- You get an error
nothing provides zlib (>=1.2.11) needed by webos-dev-manager-1.99.5-1.x86_64 from @commandline
Expected behavior Install dev manager without an error.
Additional context
- OS: Fedora 41
In latest fedora, zlib package is replaced with zlib-ng which provides same interface as zlib.

I'm having similar issues getting the rpm to install, also on Fedora 41.
In my case I just get a generic error that says "There was an issue during the update or installation process", but it wouldn't surprise me if the root cause is the same.
@tomkr4l @sync-on-luma
force install it without dependencies, since zlib-ng should be installed (check it beforehand)
sudo rpm -ivh --nodeps webos-dev-manager-1.99.5-1.x86_64.rpm
