Thanks for the quick answer. I guess the quickest solution would be to
just contact me on this email. In case I could not help, I will dispatch
the issue to the appropriate member of our team.
As of right now, Prusa Slicer can be built with the libraries installed
in the system. There are exceptions but we can discuss that in detail
later on.
Best regards,
Tamas

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.
