BUG: Install returns "file not found"
I am running Bazzite Linux. I downloaded the RPM file. I doubleclicked the file, I right-clicked and Open File with Discover and in both cases I got a failure to open due to a missing file.

Install it using the package manager via a terminal, not an UI like discover to know what the problem really is.

Apart from that, installations on Linux happen in diverse ways, but only very exceptionally by clicking on anything. An RPM file is meant for a package manager to open or for a tool that is explicitly started on a command line. Have you installed other software from an RPM file before? I bet not.

Re: BUG: Install returns "file not found"
Bazzlite is simply a themed Fedora. This is why it makes me think is a Discover/PackageKit issue and why he should install SMO using dnf. If the rpm is corrupted or something then we will know. Those UI's, like Discover usually, when there is an issue with the package simply give a generic error message. Perhaps is PackageKit's doing or the way this «App Stores» wannabees work.
