One issue, for example, is that Fedora started removing python 2 around the end of 2018. So many packages that sagemath needs were removed that we were left with no choice but to switch to python 3 for Fedora 30. That's been a little rough, but it is getting better with every sagemath release. We appreciate all the work the sagemath community has been doing to make that transition happen.

https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/index.html?
the source of these docs is in src/doc/en/installation/, so this is
done in the usual Sagemath way.

https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/installation/linux.html, the command "sudo dnf install sagemath" will install almost everything. For some reason it leaves out the notebook exporter; that should perhaps be considered a bug. The command "sudo dnf install sagemath-notebook-export" will install that. The English documentation (sagemath-doc-en) is installed by default. Documentation for other languages can be installed with "sudo dnf install sagemath-doc-XX" for suitable values of XX (ca, de, fr, hu, it, pt, ru, and tr).
