Hey Chris - So I've done two things in this area (I'm currently on 
fedora on one machine and ubuntu on a second).

Flatpak will let you edit FGDBs and has updated gdal (i believe 
officially sanctioned through QGIS)

Currently I'm working with this: 
https://github.com/conda-forge/qgis-feedstock and it's pretty smooth 
(you just have to install conda) and can edit FGDB.

Good luck,

Randy
