I have been trying to install sqldeveloper on ubuntu 22.04 but am getting error while using dpkg

Question

I have installed.rpm file for sqldeveloper installation and have converted it to.deb file using the following command as there was error while using alien:

sudo fpm -s rpm -t deb sqldeveloper-22.2.0-173.2018.noarch.rpm

I am trying to install the.deb file by using this command:

sudo dpkg --install sqldeveloper_22.2.0-173.2018_all.deb

But I am getting this error:

dpkg: error processing archive sqldeveloper_22.2.0-173.2018_all.deb (--install): parsing file '/var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci/control' near line 7 package 'sqldeveloper': 'Depends' field, invalid package name '/bin/sh': must start with an alphanumeric character Errors were encountered while processing: sqldeveloper_22.2.0-173.2018_all.deb

Is there any way I could install this?
