They also provide tar.gz source.  You can build binary executable by following:

Please note this build script downloads dependencies during its build process to
provide /usr/local/bin/nvim.  So this build script can't be used "as is" for the
official package build.  But for your local need, this may be a good option to
build functional executable binary.

Many new nvim scripts tends to require 0.8 features such as ones provided by the
treesitter and api such as lua autocmd.  After all, neovim is a fast moving
target --- 0.9 in a few weeks.   Some of its popular ecosystem tend to require
us to be on the bleeding edge of nvim release.

Good luck.
