Installing

Building Emacs
You can build Emacs from source on every distribution out there
Use this option only if the distribution doesn't already provide an Emacs version of interest to you.

That said, few distributions include in their primary repositories builds of Emacs 24. Luckily there are some unofficial repos that come to the rescue.
