Building from source. I have a bunch of patches in the lread.c to make Clojure-style #f(+ % 1) lambdas work, so I don't have much of a choice. Recently (this year), the reader was rewritten to be non-recursive, so I had to modify my patches too. Other than that, dnf builddep emacs && ./configure && make generally work well. It's worth looking at config options, some interesting things are still disabled by default (last I checked, modules, threads, and xwidgets; though it might have changed in 29).
