Hey,
Fedora 30 OpenSCAD update to 2019.05 needs your karma:
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-fee53a9610
Note that we also have a build that switches to Qt5 and enables direct printing
via OctoPrint, however I'd like to push this update first (instead of obsoleting
it).
Please, install the new OpenSCAD and report any troubles.
Thanks,

Thank you for the heads up.
Tibbs (cc'ed) is already looking into packaging the new version for Fedora in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1710526
What is the best platform to ask for help if we have problems?
Should we reach directly to you via e-mail, open issues on GitHub?
(I could probably also meet with you in real life if it helps.)
I suppose a major drawback would be lot of bundled 3rd party libraries.
I think there might be some confusion about what is "Red Hat Linux", so to
clarify, there are two things here:
Fedora - tracked above
Red Hat Enterprise Linux - never had any Slic3r in it
"Red Hat Linux" used to be a thing very long time ago.
I'm also CCing the Fedora's 3D printing mailing list for transparency.
