CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)

To install Emacs on CentOS I use this:

sudo yum install epel-release
sudo yum install emacs

Nice. But the problem is that... it install old version of Emacs = 24.3

But I need Emacs 26 to install on CentOS

Is it possible?

You can always compile yourself! There are many documentation on the internet for any specific version – itirazimvar Mar 17 '21 at 16:23
