I noticed you don't currently include instructions for installing the inkscape-silhouette extension under Fedora. In case this is helpful, I've installed the extension on Fedora Workstation 40 (fresh install) by doing the following:

1. Install the necessary packages: sudo dnf install python3-pyusb python3-matplotlib make

2. Clone the inkscape-silhoutte repo and make/install the extension: git clone https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette.git

cd inkscape-silhouette/

sudo make install

3. Add a new rule to the udev device manager: I did run into the udev issue which I resolved (as per the in-extension instructions) by creeating a 99-graphtec-silhouette.rules file: sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/99-graphtec-silhouette.rules

And adding the following rule: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0b4d", ATTR{idProduct}=="1137", MODE="666"

Finally, I loaded the file with: sudo udevadm trigger
