Why 2.5? The next version being prepared is 2.6. 2.5 is a dev release.
2.6.0rc1 is somehow a recent 2.5.

Going to 2.6 is possible depending on the platforms. But note that you
cannot go back as the db has changed. So be sure to backup in case 2.6
is not ready for you (Windows versions has issues for example).

For Linux the only solution is to build yourself for now or wait for
the packager to propose a binary distribution for your platform.

There is binary for Fedora if I'm not mistaken. Packagers will correct
me if I'm wrong :)

Best,
